So I've got the SWFA 10x rear focus in the cart. Now I want to get the flip up covers, sunshade, & mil-dot master. So start looking at the labels of HD, Non HD and all I can think is WTF is with the acronyms. I looked in the descriptions and I still didn't quite get it. I know it's the internet and we're all supposed to know these things without ever seeing them typed out, but which one do I need to buy? |

It appears you are not getting the SS10xHD, therefore you get the Non-HD accessories kit.

High Definition or Heavy Duty, kind of interchangeable. The 10xHD is a different design than the non-HD line and has upgraded g;lass and components. It is top of the line as far as 10x scopes go, outperforms much higher priced 10x's from other offerers. I have one on my 50BMG. Great scope.

Where does it say in the description if it's an HD or not? I was just looking at the $300 10X with 1/4 MOA adjustments. http://swfa.com/SWFA-SS-10x42-Tactical-Riflescope-P499.aspx Is that HD?
I have the scope and individually picked accessories in the cart now. I just want to double check some things before swiping the card.

HD cost is $799.95 & worth every nickel.Don't get wrong the standard 10x is also worth every nickel of $300,the HD is a big step up,I own both,so I speak from experience.You will never be sorry with your purchase.

Is the HD only on the Mrad models? I didn't look at the details of those scopes. I'm only interested in the MOA scopes.

Well, they all have a Mrad reticle (mildot). Don't be afraid of Mrads, they're very easy and simple to use--and having the knobs match your reticle is something you will grow to appreciate quickly.
If you can afford it, the HD model is a much better scope and you will be happier with it. Don't let the Mrad knobs scare you--you'll soon learn they're an asset. Edited by Jon A - July/30/2010 at 14:24 |

Having 1/10 mil clicks and a mil based reticle is a good thing. One click of a 1/10 mil scope moves it about 1/3 inch at 100yds were one click of a 1/4 moa scope moves it about 1/4 inch. The cool thing about having 1/10 mil clicks is you aim at the center shoot a hole in the target use the mildot reticle to measure in mils how high or low and how far left or right and then you dial in that correction in 1/10 mil clicks and next shot is in the X.

+1 Any scope with a Mildot reticle should have Mil/Mil turrets. using the 10XHD spoiled the heck out of me. You'll never want to go back to MOA. |
