Swift is known for making higher quality scopes that are comparable to Nikon.
Their glass is made in the USA and their SWIFTRELIANT riflescopes have a 5 year warranty.

I've got three Swift SRP scopes. Have had them since they came out with the SRP series. Have the 6-18, 4-12, and 3-9 on. They all get used quite extensively on my 6MM, .257 Roberts, and 06.
Never had a problem with them and would buy another if a needed another scope.

The premier line has a lifetime warranty. Actually, up until a few years ago, all their scopes had a lifetime over the counter exchange warranty. Their optics are very clear and bright. The weak link may be the adjustment system. If you set and forget, it should be fine. If you are a dial turner, I might look at a different scope. For the money ( can often be found for a deal), they are a good scope. IMO

I don't know anything about Swift as I have no first hand experience with them other than checking them out at a gun shop, but I know on a local gun classified's forum I'm on, there are a bunch of guys that use them and really like them. I've not heard any negative things from anyone who has used one, but like I said, I've not personally used one so I can't comment at this point.
