Gotta love Savage! and they are still made in the USA!

what did it set you back?

im not sure if you got the Swift scope due to price or not??? but you should compare it to something entry level from Nikon like a Prostaff.

It was like $1100 out the door for everything. The scope was $250 is swift a good scope? I was lookin at a Nikon but the guy at the gun shop recommended that one that's why I got it.

What do I think? Well, if your only shootin' deer that will do. I'm a benchrest guy though and more interested in 3-500 yard groups.
