I was disappointed Ripp in some of the reviews as I actually thought if the unit was any good I could put it to good use in some very heavy country here. My dog will point deer inside thick cover and look over his shoulder at me with a " wtf are you doing,come on you idiot its right there" and I havent a clue! So I did think one would be good to go.
I will wait till Mark 11 comes out.


Back to the scopes..the scopes we are using that are,what? 10-15- years old or more on some of the rifles are still good enough to take out hunting.

If I listen to the salesmen my 10 year old SLC Swaro`s should be retired,I do have SEL Swaro`s also and cant tell the diff,BUT then they dont have Swarovision lol!

Do i need Swarovision?

I actually walked over to a bush edge paddock and looked at six feeding deer 1/2 an hour ago in the full moonlight. I was using my 'too old' Swaro`s and doubt anything except perhaps 56mm lenses would do any better no matter what sales tell me.


Yep I`m a skeptical bastard!

Agree--I also have Leupolds on many of my rifles. In fact before I went to Cameroon in January I put a 2-12 Vari-X6 on my 375. H&H --has a red dot you can adjust for brightness ..really like that scope..and for that caliber and what I was hunting, the perfect scope..My all time favorite from Leupold is the Vari-X 3, 4-14x42--pretty sure I own a dozen or more of those on different rifles..

Think my Swaro's are a big brighter but not sure enough to justify double the money..And I have had maybe 2 I have sent back in my entire life.one of which was used..the other was on a 300 Win mag for about 16 years..btw, have also sent back 1 Swaro..so they are not immune...

For what you want to use and based on my use at the show pretty sure it would work.but, the next model I am sure is right around the corner..
