    different scope

    The bsa swf with 1 inch tube 8-32x44 I bought here in US is not same as what you have there. It is a lesser quality glass and turrets with turret covers. BSA is going to swap me out with the 30mm tube with knurled target turrets like you have there when the boat comes in. Hope its the same as the one I read about here.....

    Thinking seriously about one of these, anyone know where I could get a bigsidewheel to fit? Apparently BSA didn't order any as they would have had to order zillions

    Regards

    I understand these are out of stock. BSA are awaiting another batch end of May?

    mines arrived

    I have just recieved one of these from Opticswarehouse (13 day wait with no communications, but all well that ends well).

    At first sight they look great for the money, the optics seem to be good at all mags (but only tested it on a grey day), better than I expected
    I normally use a 8-32x44 Bushnall 4200 elite, so wasnt expecting great things from the BSA for the price.

    All twiddley bits are quite stiff but smooth at the monent, I expect they will loosen up in use.

    Mil-dot are supposed to be correct at 10x

    All in all a (hopefully) nice 8-32 x 44 with SWF, nice chunky turrets and a
    30mm tube for around £150.00, looks like a good buy

    If you want a reasonable priced SWF without a large objective lens then put one of these on your short list.

    I got have a BSA 8X32X44 mildot 30mm tube about 2 months ago. Great scope, very happy with it at a great price.
    You can also purchase them from JSR, very fast service and reliable people to deal with.
