My only swfa I have left is sitting on 3006 till I can replace it with something I prefer.

After that it will likely live out the rest of its life on a rimfire
What have you moved to that you prefer if you don’t mind me asking?

I just sold 2 scopes and ordered 3, so now I have 3 more scopes than rifles 😂
Spoken like a true optics looney......not only do I appreciate it, I applaud it.

Mine's likely going on my T3X CM, which currently has a 4.5-18x LRHSi. Gonna move that one to my Sauer PRC. I've got the new Arken 4-16x coming to put on a Sako S2.

My warrantied one on its way will probably go on the classifieds. Maybe the tikka 6.5 I plan to put together soon though if I don’t come up with something I’d rather use.

I’m about 4 scopes heavy right now too and I’m reducing the rifle count this year.

Currently have one on an encore 45 cal smokeless ML and another on a 300 wsm xbolt.

Well done, sir! Now I don't feel bad for getting a bit crazy myself these last couple months.

3-9 for a T3X Superlite in 7mm-08 that is bare
3-9 for ????
3-9 for the classifieds 🤣
6X for a rifled barrel shotgun to replace Nikon
6X for an AR to possibly replace a red dot.

In all seriousness, all 3-9’s SHOULD be put to use. My son is in dire need of a rifle as he turns 10 next year. I could always use another Tikka myself.

I guess I'll share too.
Scopes w/o a home that gotta be worked into the mix:
- Four 3-9x's
- 3-15x

Current SWFA scoped rifles:
- Ruger Ranch 6.5g w/ UL 2.5-10x32
- 18" Aero SPR w/ 6x
- Rem 700 30-06 w/ 3-9x
- Rem SPS .308 w/ 10x
- Tikka .223 w/ 10x

I know for sure that one of the 3-9's is replacing the Helos 2-12 on my TC Dimension 7mm. The Helos will get moved to the 6.5 grendel upper that I still need to assemble. I'm undecided whether to put a 3-9 on my Tikka or the 3-15 or just leave the 10x on it.

I'm also considering buying a few more rifles in 2023 that can wear the excess scopes:
- Tikka .308
- Tikka .22lr
- Bergara 7mm

I think a stainless 308 T3X is on my short list. 223 as well!

I have a 1995 Rem 700 LTR DM 308 that has been sitting around unused for the past 8-10 years. Think the 3-9 will go on this for the time being.
