This optic is truly outstanding in every sense. The true 1X is great for both eyes open fast acquisition. Zoom is smooth and further improved by adding a speed lever. The BRT reticle is a perfect match for the zoom range and use of this optic, and the choice of two illumination settings (each of which is customizable) is very helpful. The center dot illuminates cleanly with no halo or hazy edge, when set correctly.

This scope is perfect for my club's 3 gun matches. Our maximum target is at 425 yards so the 6 power is perfect and the field of view is awesome. Likewise the 1 power is a true 1 power and tha is amazing. I had to take my front iron sight off the rail because at 1X it took up a lot of what I wanted to see in front of my rifle the field of view is so big. Normally you can't see the front iron sigh through a scope. The illumination switch has a setting for night, day and off. Off is perfect when trying to zero or have a bright background. The yellow dot is easy to see and target objects with. Where you set the night setting and day setting stays put when you turn it off. The scope is light weight. The BRT retical is perfect for three gun and has 10 and 20 mph wind bars. I love that because our range is always windy in the afternoon. The software that Swarovski has for the scope is very nice but could be better.

Truly a thing of beauty. Mounted using a GG&G bolt-on FLT riser on flat-top AR-15 receiver in forward most slot. Not too heavy for what you get. Illuminated reticle dot's brightness is VERY adjustable. One-Half rotation on speed ring smoothly changes magnification from 1x to 6x, with wide and clear field of view throughout. Shot 1/2-MOA groups with 6x at 100yds. Zeroed like a tackdriver.

This is the scope that all others will be aiming for! I use it for 3 Gun, but I would not hesitate to use it as a hunting scope as well, especially great for Africa because of the true 1X.

You can't be the z6. With the true 1 power magnification you almost feel like your shooting with open sights. Very fast acquisition. Huge fov even at 6 power. Don't go cheap you will regret it. Optics planet is alway the best place to buy.
