I have one... with a sunshade on it because I am HUGE fan of sunshades, I won't even leave the house without my sunshade on, it's that important, so I have pictures.

What's the diopter set up like? Is that a locking ring in the middle of the eyepiece? Just a guess based on the pic.

Well, better a smartass than a dumbass, eh Frank?

I'd be happy to use the scope without a sunshade, would just prefer to have one to help out is all. But I appreciate the god natured ribbing directed at us "sunshade people." I don't usually follow the "gotta have the latest new fangled thing" crowd, but I guess if sunshades fit that criteria, then I'm guilty as charged!

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: stiletto raggio</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I was sold at "Super Sniper 5-20x50," but this video sealed the deal on this promo being an occasion for multiple purchases. The internals looked really, really robust. How does the glass compare to the Leupold MK4? I know the Vortex has a good reputation, but they aren't Nightforce or S&B. Are these on par with Leupold?</div></div>

I asked roughly the same question.
I was told replacing a SFP NF with this scope would not be considered taking a step backwards!!

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

For me its still a toss up between the this or a SPF NF. I just can't make a decision. Does anyone have a link to the original SWFA 10xHD 3-9FFP review? I can't seem to find it.

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

actually I thought Frank had done a short video review last year when SWFA first released the HD and the 3-9 variable. I do appreciate the link to the JROSE thread though.

Thank ya sir.

I was sold at "SS".

They seem to have hit the "value" mark between high quality for a reasonable price like no other. They generally seem as good as scopes costing hundreds more.

Every SS I own is great (I ave 2 3-9x and a 1-4x24 HD Donut/Exposed). I like them so much I've ordered 3 of these 5-20x50 for rifles I don't yet have!

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

Thats one nice scope. God, Shame I dont have a rifle to throw it on. My 308 wears my NXS.

Would you consider it on par with a NXS Frank??

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

I just wish these scopes came with moa style reticles like night force. If they did these would be a no brainer.

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

When is the other/next video coming out? I want to see MORE!!!

 

[winxp_man]

Re: Video Early Look SWFA SSHD 5-20x

Frank went out today or yesterday and had a hell of a windy day, which messed up things with video capturing and the wind sound at 20 MPH!
