Generally speaking the more you spend the better the quality, now just because some is asking $800 for a tasco doesn't mean it's better but when you are spending top dollar for what you know is top quality glass the more the better.There is a point you can compermise, I'm very happy with Leupold, I have a couple Nightforce scopes and like them better but no way can I afford to put them on all my guns. Is Swaro better than Lupy? Probably so, but I'm happy with the way my Lupys have held up, sometimes to unmetionable abuse and the performance hasn't dissapointed either. If you want the Swaro go for it, in the end you are the one spending the money, if you have your mind somewhat made up that Swaro is better and you buy something else you'll always be left wondering, should I have bought the Swaro? All that you mentioned will serve you well.
