SWFA Black Friday

[grfox92]

My 3x9 arrived on Friday and my 16x arrived today. Ordered couple days apart.

Let us know how the glass quality is on that 16x.

Got my 3-9 on Friday and I will install it on my 308 Tikka. Will be my first FFP scope and the reticle seems usable at low power (what kept me from going FFP before). Obviously I have not shot it yet, but very happy with the purchase so far and glad I was able to get it on sale. The magnification dial seems a little stiff, but maybe I just need to hit the gym lol. Will probably just put a wide rubber band on it to give it more traction for me to grip. I will now be able to dial for elevation on my shots since I can rely on them!

Will take the 3-15 Leupold that's currently on it and save it for a future 22 squirrel gun.

Anyone else get pre-focused 3-9x42s? That was sure a nice surprise on both of the scopes I bought this year.

The 3-15 is easy to focus, the 3-9 is much hard for me to find what’s perfect focus

Put some castration bands on my magnification adjuster, I’m liking it so far.

My 3-9 came in from Kenton yesterday. The Kenton level is pretty nice as well.

I was planning a rifle for my daughter, but settled on just making my 223 fit her, so now I have a backup scope. Guess I could throw it on the Encore 308 barrel.

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

Well I surprised myself and kept the 3-9
It really does suit a 223

Did you send back the 3-15?

This is accurate. However, I put it on an 18" T3X Compact .223 that was meant to be for my 9yo, but it ended up heavier overall (9lb 2oz) than my 20" T3x 7mm wearing NXS (8lb 10oz)... darn it.

Someone was interested in the black friday price so I sold it for net zero

Yes, yes it does. I'm thoroughly impressed. The lack of parallax turned out to be a non issue for me.

Sorry, not sorry. With a flat faced Timney trigger the Ruger American gen2 ranch with a SWFA 3-9x HD is a freaking amazing little package that can be shortened for kids in about a minute.

RS 95 baby!!!!
