SWFA Black Friday

If that falls through, I also have a voucher I won’t use

I’m sitting pretty undecided between the 3-9 and 3-15. Is the general idea that if you have the 3-15 you’ll be more tempted to use the upper magnification range more often which can negatively limit your field of view?

I don’t get why it’s a negative to have the 15x for times at the range, but only use the 3-9x range while you’re hunting. Or is everyone just repeating that the 3-9 is the best because that’s what they’ve read other people say?

I’ve read the thread multiple times and understand the diamonds are not filled in on the 3-15, questionable image quality from 12-15 (often refuted), a few more ounces, reticle is slightly thicker on the 3-9, and a higher price tag on the 3-15.

Just wondering what I’m missing if one were to get the 3-15 just for the sake of having more magnification while at the range.

I bought both the 3-9 and 3-15 and will just keep the one I like more
Despite all the love for 3-9's, I am guessing I won't care for it. I don't need to save 3 oz, but we will see

I really like the 3-15. I use 15x sometimes, useful for spotting / measuring bullet holes in paper. Dont use more than about 10x for hunting often except to play with trying to measure stuff with the reticle.

If anyone bought a 3-9 with a Kenton turret voucher they’d like to get rid of to further discount the scope - I’d buy one.

I'll be getting rid of mine for cheap

I couldn’t decide between the two until I saw that my Maven went up to $1400 and no Black Friday sale so I bought both.
First impressions:
I definitely like the maven reticle the best.
I see why they call the SWFA a 3-12. That’s how id use it anyway.
Both 3-15s I’ll keep on 4x for the reticle, the 3-9 is good at 3x.
The SWFA turrets are plenty stiff, but not too stiff. I don’t think I’d worry about them moving around on me.
The maven turrets aren’t bad, but definitely keeping an eye on them.
The SWFA 3-15 throw lever sucks. Going to take it off and use ranger bands.
I’ll be keeping all of them!

I have a one time use 25% off Maven coupon via postcard that is good thru end of year. If you'll actually use it I'll give it to you.

If he doesn’t use it I’ll gladly take it. I’m bout to purchase another RS1.2 for my boy’s rifle.
