In 2006, I bought the Swarovski PH3-12X50 Riflescope and it turned out to be a great decision. Purchasing a high quality scope for my rifle was very important to me, as I spend time hunting deer and elk in Utah and Montana. In fact, in 2006 I shot 2 nice buck mule deer and a bull elk with the help of my new scope. I think purchasing a high quality scope is just as important as deciding which rifle to buy. Many people buy an expensive rifle and then settle for substandard optics. Yet, it is the optics that allow you to see what you're shoting at. Swarovski is definately the way to go with your scope for the best in overall optics, don't settle for anything less.
