Anyone have experience with the Swift scopes? Some one told me they were pretty nice. I don't want to spend a ton of moneyand they have a nice price. If I don't go with Swift, I'll be getting aNikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 for my 7mag.

I have a couple of Swift scopes on my rifles and like them. IMOP they are a better scope than the vx1 Leopolds. They are not the top of the line scope but for the money you can't beat them. Got one on a 450 Marlin and another on 270wsm and have given me no trouble.

I got one on my 308 and have no complaint's. And for the money very hard to beat.

I have a Swift 1.5 x 4.5 and love it but it is a 100 yard scope. Nice thing is to turn it down to 1.s and can go walking and use it as a jump gun, I had it on my NEF .308 but moved it to my H&R 45-70. holding accurate on both. People keep telling me it is a "cheap scope", but serves me well.

Yea I got one, have it on my 7mag for 20 years. Not a bad scope at all, its never given me a minutes trouble.

I've owned 3 of them and I only own 1 now. I wish I had the other 2 back. I would compare mine to my Buckmaster, but not as clear as my Monarch. There head quarters is here in Colorado right down the road from my house. I plan on visiting there soon. I even thought about applying for a sales rep job there. Great scope for the money!

I had one and it was a really nice scope, I just didn't have a good home for it, so I sold it. Wish I hadn't.

My hunting binoculars are Swift HHS 8.5x44s, and they are outstanding. For the money, the Swift optics are hard to beat.

I have a Swift 4-9x40 on my Remmington 700 .270 and I has performed very well.
