I bought a Swift Premier 4-12X40AO Model #676 4 years ago for my CZ American 221 Fireball. When I got it out for groundhoggin this summer I found it was foggy on 12x & at times it was even foggy on 8 & 10x. The AO showed 20yds when I knew I was shooting 100yd targets. The power ring had gotten about twice as stiff to turn as when it was new also. Altho it still magnified smoothly when I went up or down thru the power. So I called the Swift Co on July 2, 2009 & they gave me an invoicing number to write on the package. I sent it in that afternoon & the wait began. I was told their service department would “get on it right away upon receiving it†& that I could expect it back quickly. No time frame was given otherwise.
Here it is, Friday July 10th. It’s a blue sky 85* day & I got done working at 1 PM. When I got home There was a brown box on the table. And it had a Swift Sport Optics label on it!! It only took 8 days to ship,repair,& return from Ohio to Colorado. It appears to be very clear on all settings now & I need to mount it & take it to the range. Look out groundhogs!! The FireBall is back!!
They said the scope needed some internal adjustments & that was all. I'm pleased so far with everything about this scope for right around $200 I believe it was.

Re: Swift Premier
Glen,
Glad to hear of the good experience with them. I should be getting my Nikon back today and hopefully they fixes it, we'll see.

Re: Swift Premier
How long have you been waiting? And what was wrong with the scope?
