Very clever....:)
Nice. But yeah it would at least cost the year's wages of a blind gynecologist

Ouch. So all that clever tech hurts the light transmission. Standard z5 is a 90%. this is at 83%
Intresting, I would like to have a play with one, not sure how keen, don't like batteries on scopes, one more thing to go wrong,
Not aviable in USA or Canada, pity as I have a ten year safety award, due in May, and can pick pretty much what I want, (one of the perks, of running your own business) looking at a ATS or ATX 65mm spotter.
I might ask if there is a demo model about, I can get a loan of.
25 year Swarovski sale, on at the moment in Canada, smoking deals on optics, 20-40% off, Picked up a Z5 3x18x44 BT,:thumbsup:for my self for Xmas, $1650. cad, (1750)Nz, and just, put a deposit down, on a Z5i for my sako 6PPC, target rifle,
Yes very nice.......but when can we get one.... this year....... probably next....maybe.... ?
What store are you going through?Quote:

Clever, yes. Practical, never.
I dunno. I can rather see you dressed in a tie and jacket using one of those like in the vid. :)Quote:

Me. My NXS is almost a kilo. I'd far rather have a good quality scope with high magnification and reliable dialling than a small, light, low magnification number just because it's light. Plenty of other places where weight can be saved.Quote:

The NXS is OK if you're Chris Kyle, but mediocre if you don't have a Hummer to lug it everywhere.
Price in Europe is around E3900... thats about NZ $ 5700ish so it will be north of $8k once all the usual sharks have added their margin
Nice scope and ok for hurried shots or didn't want to carry the other xtra gear eg rangefinder,wind/baro meter, ballistic app.
Does anyone know if the Swarovski ballistic app works with a 300 Blackout subsonics?
For that type of money I would rather invest in thermal scope and just use the system I'm using now a good dail up scope, rangefinder, ballistic app phone, still a lot of battery's to crap out.
As for weight it's what your willing to carry, I'm 15kgs over weight says the doctor but still carry that easily and a Nightforce scope. I know what weight I would rather loose the one around my guts than a few hundred grams on a scope.
That is lot of tech, dollars and weight for a 298m shot.
Sheesh! Bugger thatQuote:

A noticeable difference in weight with no loss of performance.

With a suppressor and a LR scope it is just over 7.5lbs.
Might have something to do with a carbon wrapped barrel and carbon stock😆

Exactly. Heavy rifles need heavy scopes. Blaser/Swarovski combo = perfect.Quote:

Interesting to see a Gen II is out now...
Having a Gen 1 for work, I can attest that they suck.
Shit light transmission is gripe #1, followed by being a 1kg 40mm tube optic, then having to re-set the illumination multiple times as light conditions change, then the shitty concealed turrets, then losing zero (they make Leupold look reliable!)...
Did I mention that I didn't pay for it either? Head office thinking was this 'super scope' would save money down the line on ammo (which is copper only :angry: ) and range time needed...
For a scope that cost more than a full setup (think new Tikka T3, mounts, bipod, scope, and plenty ammo), I'd recommend going down that route and getting some range time instead.
Good scope for rich fools who don't shoot much.
