[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1519786, member: 96226"] SWFA SS make really good scopes. Glass is decent, not top shelf as you would expect but pretty darned good. Better by far than a lot of optics in that price region. Very rugged, really good turrets. I would pony up for a variable if you're going to hunt with it. Vortex Viper PST v1's had very slightly better glass IMO but the difference is too little to worry about. Not sure about the V2's. Vortex Viper V1's have had less consistently good click consistency but again the difference is minimal and hit and miss from scope to scope. I'd personally go SWFA if those are your options but that's personal preference. You won't do badly with either a Vortex Viper or a SWFA SS. Either way, qualify the scope with a tall target test to get click values confirmed. [/QUOTE]
