    About friggen time, I'm a big fan of the Z5 but yup Swaro have been leaning on the shovel for years re the 13moa turret etc, Crickey where did they find that guy from the vid , he looks so nervous n couldn't even get a nice fitting shirt, whats the world coming to hahahaha

    I priced up a standard Z5 few months back & they have gone next level expensive, seems will be the typical " you live on the bum of the world so pay the price" BS as normal

    So these thing's will be bonkers dollars here

    If you've managed to live without one, manage to live like always, otherwise you're wasting your precious dollars chasing the bling

    Can't seem to get the price list out of the email without doing a screenshot which comes out fuzzy.
    Any ideas

    The critical thing for me is what does the ret look like. I don't like big horus wire bedframes to look through. Hopefully they have a milrad with a few number on it. A fine center dot is nice too imo

    You‘ll be disappointed. I had a look on their website.

    Much as I love Swarovski, think I’ll just go with VX-5

    See Dave at shooter ready in Cambridge, he bought a good chunk of the left over VX5 from nz Asia before it got handed over to the new distributor.

    that extra bit of zoom makes a decent difference for long range.3-18 base models are cheaper than the vx6 and also lighter so pretty good value there.
