New Rifle :-D

Scopes are cheap compared to camera lenses. I used to think they were expensive until I got into photography; now a $500 scope seems like a bargain.

There have been some reviews GUSHING about that scope, comparing it favorably to scopes costing 3x as much. I should have an idea of how it is friday

I'VE had a SS for a few years now on my F-class rig.  While a 10x scope isn't ideal fir f-class, its good enough for me to learn with. Most importantly, the scope is solid and the adjustments are  perfectly repeatable. I used to think scopes had to have a gold ring on them to be worth buying, but I'd rather  buy SWFA products in the future.

Here's mine mounted on a Savage 10FP. I used a 20moa base
Which turns out to be extraneous with the amount of adjustment available in the scope.

I was/am a fan of the SWFA SS scopes, but I have converted to Vortex scopes.  A bit more money, but better (to me) options.
