I wouldn't trade an old Nikon monarch 3 3-12x42 for two SWFA 3-15x if I had to actually hunt with them. The SWFA doesn't trip my trigger.Been looking at the reviews on Mil-Quad reticles, SWFA in general, you name it...
Is there a big problem with the glass on the 3-15? It seems like there must be some catch that I'm missing, as it gets nowhere near the attention the 6X, 3-9, or 5-20 gets.
Anyone with input on what everyone else knows that apparently, I don't?![]()
Don’t worry, nobody will offer to make that trade…I wouldn't trade an old Nikon monarch 3 3-12x42 for two SWFA 3-15x if I had to actually hunt with them. The SWFA doesn't trip my trigger.
That's fine, but folks saying the 3-15 SWFA is fine in low light conditions are delusional. I enjoy killing deer when everyone else is already back at their truck.Don’t worry, nobody will offer to make that trade…
So much for the paint pen is foolproof theory.

Which paint pen brand and color did you use?Close, paint pen failed to dry on the base screws. They came loose and sheared the dovetail pins. One of the pins sheared off higher then the bottom of the ring bases which kept them in place. Kinda amazed at how tight the groups were knowing the rings were loose.

This seems much more likely to be the root cause. I have seen instances of non oil based paint pens being used that were worthless.Who’s said that? And it wasn’t the paint that was the issue- bet money. It’s his cut away action and where he mounted the ring. “Paint” coming loose isn’t causing a screw to lossen up enough to shear a pin- nor is loctite…. But mounting the ring too far forward where the dovetail isn’t full depth will…
Not the first cut away action with busted pins either.
Here’s one, and if the recoil pin was used, it would have broke it too-
