Thread: New scope for my MK 5

super sniper 3-9x42. ffp, mil/mil.

SWFA SS 3-9x42 Tactical 30mm Riflescope

My pick for an all round hunting rifle.

I find the vx3 2.508 very nice to use and clear glass, haven't tried the B&C rec, but if you like it on the other one then it makes sense to have it in your next one.

I would have a good look at a Leupold M2 , 2.5-8x36 , 30mm tube , either std or lit , up to you .

Really? I would snap those turrets off in no time. Maybe work on a LR rifle but not my idea of an all rounder.

+1 An ugly POS to

Maybe. I dunno how you'd snap those turrets off even if you treated gear as bad as I do.

It is bloody ugly, but has good glass, deadly repeatable, 3x is perfect for bush, 9x will get you to 1000y, 42mm objective, mildots are ffp for snap shooting in between those ranges, tough as a nightforce, lighter, 1/3 the cost.

Only down side is no zero stop.

Personally function comes first, form later. But hey, everybody is different.

According to SWFAs export policy , they donot export outside the US , they say its due to credit card fraud & US GovT restrictions .
Years ago they where more than happy to take my money .
