IMHO, i think you would be better off with the new ags swat! It will have better light intake that the simmons! from the 30mm tube and the 56mm obj lens!

Also on the simmons mag 44 range the mildot spaces are huge! ! so if your using a .177 you probably wont need to use the dots!

The new AGS is available already see here at BAR

Hopefully i'll be getting one soon

i think he is on about the new! 4-16X56 IR

I have the Simmons 6-20X 44Mag and the 2 different SWAT scopes 3-12X44 and 4-16X56.
They are all excellent scopes but the SWAT scopes win due to the sidewheel.
Optics are on par as is build quality.
The SWAT scopes are bigger and heavier due to the 30mm tubes...overall the SWAT scopes feel more solid and more ready to take some abuse.

My favourite is the 3-12X44SWAT...it has really clean lines and is a nice size, especially for HFT

The SWAT scopes are milled out of a solid aluminium billet, Not 3 or more pieces screwed together, nice and strong
