Y'all since SWFA is a sponsor here I know you guys will be interested in seeing their 10X HD scope . This is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT scope than the 10X42 non HD scope . Chris was nice enough to answer a few.questions about the scope before I made this video so I would have the information correct . 

If you guys haven't seen one of these in person it is Really something special for the price !!!!

50 yards parallax is a deal breaker for airguns.

Well, it sure was for me....The 3-15x 42's are so damn impressive I kept thinking talk yourself into spending the bucks on the HD 5-20 and it couldn't get any better. I just had to talk myself into 35 yard parallax....Looked at it for 6 months and ordered one on black friday.....It was out of stock so waited a few months to get it and HOLY poop after all of that it's 50 yard parallax......Thank me cause while on the phone telling them 50 is too far and I need to return it the description was changed to 50. I'm liking more magnification as I go plus my PB guns can share so my long range scope remains my Vortex 5-25 PST 2. The color rendering is really so much better on the SWFA for me that it really helps my eyes for hunting.

So...OK Chris you gotta think about the airgun side now that you've signed up....Joe will you please talk to him LOL

Cheers,Scott

I've been thinking about emailing Chris about the fact that there really isn't a perfect Field Target scope available. The big Sightron seems like the most commonly used, but you always hear about it being really temp sensitive, and the fact that it's huge and heavy.

I'm the oddball and use the SWFA SS 20x rear AO for field target. I've got three of them! It's not the perfect scope for field target but I like the size and weight, repeatability of the tracking/turrets, and reticle. 

If you guys are hinting at a 20x HD version of the SWFA, I'll be buying one, as long as it focuses down to ten yards and has the mil quad reticle.

Bout the only way that could be beat would be a 35 or 40x fixed power, mil quad reticle,HD glass, focus down to ten yards, with a side focus that uses at least 180 degrees of the rotation for 10-55 yards! Although it might need a bigger objective than the the 42mm to not be be too dark. It'd be the perfect competition for the Leupold Competition Series that some people say is about as good as it gets for Field Target. 

Just my thoughts.
