Anyone have any experience with these. I was looking at Burris scopes today and the guy said that Swift makes a good scope that is on par with Burris for a lot less money.
$115 for a 3X9.
The optics were clear, but I dontknow anything about the Swift's.

I own a few SWIFT scopes for hunting configurations. I beat the SH-T out of them and they still hold zero, and are very clear. They also make high end medical microscopes.

I have a few and love em. I would definately get another. I have Burris' also and like those. For the $$$ a swift is a great scope!!

Shhh, not many people know they are any good.

I have a Swift 6-24 x 50 Target model on my Bushmaster Varminter. I've been very pleased with it so far. I actually think it's clearer than my 3-9 x 40 Leupold on my deer rifle.

The guy at the store has one on a 280 and said it had held its zero for over 10 years of use.
I would put this scope on a 300 winmag and was concerned about a less expensive scope holding its zero.
I have a Nikon 3X9 buckmaster also and maybe I will put the Nikon on my 300 and get a Swift to put on my 6.5X55 Swede in place of the Nikon.

Thanks for the input guys. Lee
