Title: Swift Premier scopes
Post by: lostsniper308 on June 17, 2005, 06:09:02 AM

Does anyone have any intel about this line by Swift? I've heard good about them but one thing i notice is Swift refers to their scopes as Premium while all stores call them Premier, what gives?? Any way i'm tinkin' about the 4-12x40AO "Premier/Premium" scope. One thing that bothers me is i hear them refered to as air-rifle and rifle scopes, Are they qualified for both or would this thing give out to a .308?

I have a few of these. They seem to be a good buy. It is my understanding the airguns are harder on the scope than a firearm. A 308 isn't going to hurt these scopes.

wonderful then yay! A 6-24 is too high for me and a 3-9 is not enough and it usually lacks AO. So i find an AO 4-12x40 just right for me.
