Swarovski Z5

[WildWill]

On my way home from Wyoming and stopped at the Johnstown Scheels here in Colorado. They have a pretty good deal on a Swarovski Z5 and thinking a might swing by in the morning and pick it up to put on my new Christensen 300 win mag. Anyone have one if so how do you like it? Wondering if I should just stick with a leupold what says the brain trust?

I have a z3 3-9 and a z5 3.5-18, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend either one. The only complaint I regularly see is the one inch tube but I’m not a long range guy so it doesn’t matter to me.

The turret system is pretty nice once you get it set up. It’s cool that there is nothing to have cut, you just zero and add the rings as you stretch out your distance.

I also don’t have anything against the Leupold (I’m assuming vx-5?) but the glass is definitely better on the Swaro.

What issue with the 1”tube?

The cool kids want the extra adjustment in a 30 or 34mm

Big fan of my Z5 and its glass clarity will smoke most of the Leupold lines.

They will wreck you from ever using other scopes.
