SWFA Super Sniper

Took a while to find the right allen wrench. They are still smooth. blue

I have a 10x on my DPMS Sweet 16 and it's a great scope, clear, tracks great.

I would also suggest the Weaver Tactical Grand Slam 3-10 mil-mil scope. Bot work great!

I've got the new SS HD 5-20x on my .22LR trainer. Nice scope...

This winter I was between this scope and the nikon buckmasters. I went with the nikon and am very happy. Next scope will be a super sniper just to see what they are all about.

Chris Farris didn't cut any corners when he bought the rights to the Super Sniper name and revamped it. They stand behind them scopes too. Their warranty is about like Vortex's except you won't hear much about it cause very few use it.

History 101- Tasco marketed the Super Sniper for a while, stopped, SFWA/Chris Farris bought the rights, he beefed it up and made it a quality scope. I think they still sent original Tasco manuals with them for a long time but thats only to save cost of having to make new ones.

FWIW, now you've got me wondering just which one I have. Was purchased (through SWFA) late 2007, and came with the Tasco manual; Japanese-made.

if you got it from SWFA you got the better Chris Farris version, I think he's had the rights for almost 10 years but don't quote me on that.

ive heard nothing but good things about the SS scopes. i have been looking real hard at a 3-9 with the new mil quad reticle. i just wish it had HD glass.

 

[TXCOONDOG]

Being a FFP and non-illuminating reticle, can you see the reticle on mag 3 in low light or at night in brush ?

The outer bars of the mil quad are thick enough to stand out & the 5-20x has loominations...

I have have to strain my eyes and get real picky to tell a difference in the glass of my SS 3-9's and SS 5-20's or 10XHDs.
