Rifle Scopes SWFA SS 3-9x or 10x HD???

[falzy24]

Which one would you guys go for? I can't decide.... I would primarily be using it at the range that goes out to 600yds. It would be my first scope and I would be putting it on my M1A. Please let me know what you guys think.

On a side note: Do you think these new scopes are made of better parts then the older versions? Because the 10x without the HD would be much more affordable.

The nice about the new SS is the adjustments are in Mils, the regular SS adjust in MOA, I think I would get the 3-9, Lowlight had one on one of his AR10 and I was very impressed with it, great bang for the buck IMHO.

Better scopes, better glass. The 3-9 will be more versatile and almost as much mag. Plus a couple 100 less.

Been out all day shooting the SS 3-9. Cranking the knobs. The clicks are repeatable. Its easy as hell to teach a new guy with a Mil/Mil first focal plane scope. Just tell him to dial what he sees in the reticle. Glass easily trumps my Leupold Mark 4 8.5-25.

Its as if my sniper essence were transformed somehow into this scope.

I have the 3-9 and like it allot. Have yet to look through a 10X HD.

No question the 3-9 is much more versatile.
