I have said it more than once and i am sure that i will say it again, the Super Sniper series of scopes are good. They are not on par with Nightforce or IOR or any of the big high dollar stuff but for the price they are fantastic optics with good glass and extremely reliable functions. I plan on getting a couple of them in the future for various builds.
I prefer a higher quality optic but sometimes the cost factor dictates what I buy. I like Leupold and Nikon quite well and one of my new favorites is Pride Fowler. PF scopes are more affordable as far as out of pocket expense but they do not cut corners on quality in their scopes, they are fantastic and I will own many more of their products as well.
In reality if cost is an issue for optic choice during a gun building project we would probably be better served to buy a lesser expensive barrel,action, etc... and put more money towards a higher quality scope. Just my opinion.

From what I've been reading SWFA's SS scopes are made in Japan (not by Tasco) and have glass comparable to IOR's and better quality control and customer service..Optic clarity is better than Leupold and they are quite a bit better than the Leupold AR line of scopes and some say dollar for dollar better than some scopes in the MK 4 line...But they are not comparable to NF.


Ugh....wish I could see one 1st hand up close and in person instead of just reading aboout em.....

The SS scopes are made in Japan says so on the bottom of it. They have fantastic glass, have to say though that its hard to beat the SS package deal. I've been playing with the optic around my house and it is clear. The clicks are noticeable when adjusting bullet impact point. I'm just happy as a school kid. I also went with this scope because when you buy a Nikon you are paying a little extra for those gold letters. We have had multiple Nikon and Leupold this and that I can't see a difference between this $600 and some of the $800+ optics out there. Don't hate SS anymore SWFA bought it no more Tasco in SS.



Kadin

Well, I finally settled on a scope & ordered it not long ago.......

It was a long drawn out process that's spanned quite a few months....

Here's a big to everybody that had input on the scope

Hopefully they ship Satturday, but if not she should hopefully still get here sometime next week

SWFA said that Bushnell will warranty the SS line of scopes for what that's worth....
