    Had Z6i now for the last month or so.

    Got a 5-30x50 BT and a 3-18x50 BT.

    IMO better than Nightforce, Zeiss, S&B etc...

    Might sell one of the above and get the 2.5-15x56 for my Sika stalking.

    Can see myself moving away from these now as I don't think there is anything better

    Swarovski is the best scope

    I have had one of these scopes and cannot fault them.

    I have a Z6i 5-30 on my Mannlicher .243 - bought it from Sportsman GC and they let me compare S&B, Zeiss and Nightforce in nearest equivalent specs before purchase. Swaro got for best edge to edge resolution (flat field of focus) and low light brightness - signs of good lenses and coatings. Just contemplating another fixed focal length spec for stalking.

    What's the parallax range/min parallax on the 5-30?

    I have to say, the Z6i I have (5-30) is fantastic. It amazes me with this and the conquest how the manufacturers keep the weight down and keep the optical performance where it is. Just wish I had bought one a few years ago when they were 25% cheaper.
    I am going to get a March scope in a few weeks, so I'll have interesting comparison to run..
