SWIFT SCOPE

Does anyone have a swift premier scope. I was wondering if it would stand up to the recoil of a 300 weatherby mag ? thanks m-s

SWIFT SCOPE

I love Swift scopes. I currently have 4 of them, all of them being the Premier line. I have 3-9x40's on a 257 Roberts and a .270WSM. I have a 4-12x40 on a .270win. and a compact 4x32 on a 45-70. I have never had a single complaint about any of them. While the 45-70 has a good bit of recoil it won't quite compare to a 300wby but I wouldn't hesitate to to put one on it. I worked in a sporting goods store that was a full line Swift dealer and I never saw a swift have a problem because of recoil including sitting on top of .338 Ultra Mags and the .375H&H. All Swifts are crystle clear and in my opinion they are the best scope on the market for the money. I think as long as you use quality all steel mounts you shouldn't have anything to worry about.

Hunting Tip: Need a Cultipacker for Deer Plots?...

I will admit, I love deer plots. I love planting... even the garden at home. What I do not like are high cost farm implements. I found myself in need of a cultipacker for clover and other small seed - but could not find a decent deal on a small unit. OK, fine... I will make one! The materials were very simple... some plastic corrugated sewer drain pipe, some metal, 2 bearings and some concrete and you are in business! I cut the pipe, in this case, to 46" wide - as I intended to pull this one...
