    Swarovski scope

    Evening all. Where is the best place to buy a Swarovski Z3 scope? Thinking a 3-10x42 with plex reticle. Is it cheaper to import?

    You wouldn't know what to do with yourself. It would shoot well outta the box and wouldn't have to be a gunsmith yo-yo

    When you come down for a cham I will let you shoot it with a blaser. No sakos allowed in my hunting spots. 😆
    I heard you would have a big sika on your wall if you borrowed James blaser?😆

    Almost bought a mint BSA monarch in .222 for a song the other day for my boy.

    Ask 45South for a price, he's pretty sharp on that sort of stuff.

    back on subject, I bought mine from BHPhoto in USA. Ship it to a mate and get it here via them. Half the cost of NZ.

    Have a look at a zeiss HD5 in the same mag range Ginga. Not a bad scope at all. I sold my Z5 for one.
    Slightly heavier but glass is as good as the swaro imo.

    I just got an ad email from eurooptic in the states with a sale on Zeiss. Some of the HD 5 scopes are ridiculously cheap at the moment so even with duty way cheaper than you can get here I assume.
    Pm me your email and I will forward it to you.
