I might be a little late with that comment, but you know I have a little catching up to do...

I have on of those on my R93 in 9,3x62 which I use mostly for driven hunts. I like it for that purpose, and the quality is as good as they get, but I find that the middle dot is a little to coarse for my taste! (@ 100m's it's about 10cm).

For africa I personally prefer the Leupold 1,5-5x24 which also has approx. 50% more eye relief on the 1,5x setting then the Swaro (and all other european makes...). It's simply the fastest scope I have yet seen - and the duplex works fine all the way out to 200+ meters without giving any on shorter distances!

Would be nice to hear about CC's experience with it!
BTW: Do you know why CC changed his S2 to .470? I thought that he had ordered it in .416/500???
