Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
I've only had it a short time but have made it to the range once:
At 100 yds:
5X
10X
20X
At 300 Yds:
5X
10X
20X
After a few shots at 100 I moved to 300 and these were the groups:
A couple 2"ers, 8 of my last 10 shots went into the 2" center of the bull which is pretty good for a gas gun. The scope gets it done very easily.

Here's the illumination:
Reticle checked for straightness and click value measured right on as accurately as I can measure. About 33.5 Mils of total elevation adjustment. In the 20 MOA AADMOUNT I've got 22.5 Mils of up left from my 100 yd zero.
Glass is OUTSTANDING! I'll have more comments soon.

Looks great Jon. I hope your inbox is empty, because I have a feeling you're in for a lot of PM's. I'll bet you won't be able to make them fast enough. Keep up the good work.

Scope looks great can't wait to get one on order.
The mount is a cool piece of kit also. They make a great pair.

Great pics Jon ! Great to see another choice in the FFP market.
Looking forward to hearing more when you get out again.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Does it have zero stops? I'm sure it will be better than my weaver tactical, but not sure if it's worth the step up in price. Of course, I'm just speculating on the price.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
It is not available yet... The only two scopes made are in Jon's and Low Light's hands. These are just the prototypes.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Probably waiting on reviews to see what if anything needs fixed. Patience is learned not granted...

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Looks incredibly promising...
+1 for price / availability timeline
- Not sure about the reticle, I'm one for a plain hash style closer to MLR,TMR, IOR MP8 A-5. But perhaps it will grow on me.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
depending on price, this might me my next scope. I like everything about it so far and it will go well with my other SS

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Looks good. I'm still very impressed with my SWFA 1-4HD which was my first SWFA/SS purchase.
I wonder what final pricing is and if SWFA will release it before my 4-16 and 6-24 PST backorders ship... that will make for an interesting decision.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
I think I found the glass the is going to sit on top of my REPR. If the pricing follows along the lines of the other SS FFP scopes then this will be hard to keep instock

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Looks VERY promising, tracking and mechanicals being solid. Hopefully pricing will be comparable to the mid-level scopes and availability will be better than the PST's.

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
How's eye box and eye relief of the SS scope compare to NF ( is it changing when you trying to zoom in? )

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Jon,
I would just like to ask about the details of how you shot your photos, particularly the first few of the scope itself. Some of the clearest I've seen!

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Nice profile. I am assuming that the scope might weigh a little less than comparible scopes just by comparing other SS scopes. 32 ounce scopes make a rifle a little top heavy in my opinion. I feel that most scopes elevation knobs are too tall. This one looks about right (close to a NF). Reticle looks ok. Something looks a little strange about the housing, like the knobs don't fit quite right. Overall this looks like a scope that I have been waiting for even though I would prefer a zero stop. Not to sure about the PST but the Premier Light Tactical looks promising. Pending positive reviews I am very interested in this scope!

Re: SWFA Super Sniper 5-20X50HD
Another request for info on how fussy the eye box is at high magnification and curious to know if the eye relief is constant? Also curious how much it weighs?
