Looking at this scope for my AR. Just want to hear about any negative feedback. Thanks.

I have one of them on each of my 2 savages (mil dot with 1/4 moa turrets) and I can't think of anything negative about them. Very repeatable adjustments and firm, audible clicks.

These replaced $900 Leupold Mark 4 scopes and I personally think they are on par quality wise.

Lifetime warranty through SWFA. If you ever have an issue they will fix it or replace it.

If I ever built a precision AR  or another bolt action and needed an optic, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

I had a hard time deciding whether or not I should fork over the extra $100 for the side parallax/ focus but I'm glad I did. It would be a pain having to adjust it at the rear of the scope.

Good luck.

I had a 16X that a shooting buddy liked so much he talked me out of it. Now have a 10X42M and it's been great. No problems what so ever. Buy it you'll be glad you did.

I bought the side paralax 10x SS mil/mil. I took it back a week later(I live 45 miles from the SWFA store front). I bought the midway exclusive bushnell elite 10x mil/mil. That extra $200 bought me alot if extra ammo. Don't get me wrong, the SS was a great scope, but for what I'm doing, the extra ammo was worth it. Honestly in this price range, the midway exclusive weaver tactical 3-10x40 mil/mil is the best scope. I honestly shoulda stepped up and got that scope. Way more versatile. I don't lose sleep as I'm only shooting for groups at 100 yards and slapping steel further out.

I've got a 12x mil/mil and a 16x moa. SWFA SS scopes are amazing for their price. A steal actually if you buy them used. Their quality is excellent and it should serve you well.
