    Swarovski Z3

    Any one have a z3 4-12x50bt?
    I've had one of the smaller models but not this one.
    Thought it looked like a good mag range in a lighter weight.
    Would be interested to see what you think.
    Thanks

    Thanks but want to try something else, even with the 50mm and bt the swaro is a fair bit lighter in scope world.

    Yep I have one, was on my Brno 22 K-hornet but has recently shifted to my mauser 22LR. It works as it should - once set up they are limited to one turret revolution. Multi-zero works as it should, adjustments on the turret aren't as tactile as my K624i but work fine.

    I've got a Swaro z3 4-12x50 with BRH reticle on a 300wsm - bloody ripper optics, supper clear and great lowlight perfoemnce.
    zero'd at 240 yrds the reticle will get me out ~850 yds which is all I need.
