Any body use Swift scopes?

Specifically how would the Swift Premiere 4 x 12 X 40mm compare to the Leupold Rifleman 4 x 12 X 40mm in quality, etc.

I believe that they are still one of the little known gems.

I've had a Swift Premiere 669MA ( target turrets ) scope mounted on my varmint rig for the past 5 years and I've encountered NO problems to date.

I have one of those swift pistol scopes on a tc contender in 35 rem. 4X fixed and I have have no problems even with the recoil. It could gather light a bit better but was in my price range 10 years ago and has yet to need an upgrade.

I have a 4x Leupold that is 27 years old. It went thruogh a car wreck and the gun it was on was destroied. The scope itself doesn`t look to good, but it works like a new one. Any Leupold has a Life time warrenty. At present I have 30 Leupold scopes, plus or minus 2, and I`ve never had a problem with any of them.
