    Ia there much of a price differance between that and a z6 5-30, the z6 has a 30mm tube so should have more adjustment and i dont know if they have the same glass, but either way should be a fantastic scope

    Havent used the brx reticle but I had a couple of tds4 scopes, changed to the ballistic turret in 2.5-15x44 and I love it, easier to use than a drop reticle IMHO. The clarity of the glass wont be beaten either.

    I have 2 of the older models. Excellent quality, clarity is as good as anything out there.

    I have a 4-16-50 tds and a z6 2-5-15/44, both are cracking scopes, i use the tds scope more as its on the 25-06, i really like the reticle, very fine which makes it easier for neck shooting.

    at dusk the z6 is brilliant gives a good bit longer to shoot.

    You wont go wrong with any of the swarovski range, have a look at this sight,i picked up the z6 there at a good price.

    It's hard to give an opinion without knowing the specifics. What calibre are you putting it on and what do you intend using it for? Swaro are a fab optic and you will struggle to find someone who will tell you different. I would consider 25x mag too high if you intend using it for hunting.
