Latest Rifle Scopes of the Swarovski Z6 Generation

Swarovski Optik announces the Z6 (i) 2.5-15x44 which extends the successful generation of Z6 riflescopes. The 15x magnification with parallax correction and HD Optic provides the hunter with the necessary reliability for shots at long distances, particularly in difficult, rough terrain or hunting where weight and distance come into play.
In January 2007, Swarovski Optik revolutionized the hunting market and launched rifle scopes with 6x zoom. For the hunter this means a field of view that is larger, a magnification range that is higher and an eye relief that is longer than the competition. All these features make the Z6 models universally usable and the perfect companion for all types of hunting, from still-hunting to long-range shooting. The Z6 series is being supplemented by another versatile model in the Z6 (i) 2.5-15x44, the hunter now has a rifle scope which enables high precision with a smaller objective reticle, which is specifically designed for long distance shooters, will also be available.

Perfection in any light
Swarovski Optik announces the Z6 3-18x50 which extends the successful generation of Z6 riflescopes. It offers all the revolutionary benefits of the Z6 and is particularly wellsuited for hunting in poor light conditions. The HD optic and 3rd turret parallax correction ensures an accurate target image at any distance. The 3x magnification offers the security of a large field of view combined with the 18x magnification is very helpful for very long range shots.

"This new very versatile magnification scope extends our very successful family of Z6 rifle scopes, and will be an excellent addition to the American shooter. We are very excited to bring this product to market," commented Albert Wannenmacher, CEO of Swarovski Optik North America.

What is the difference between Swarovski's No;4 and 4A reticle?

Well, the BR reticle makes in my mind no sense on that scope: TAKE the ballistic turrent and You have the best option for long range shooting. I tested this myself on 300m range with Swarovski and it is awesome !!!

@Doug: Do You know anything about availibility of those new scopes? I have the info that they will come for more than 8 month now, but there is no date so far when they will arrive...?!

Swarovski says Spring so I take that to mean between June and August

Thanks Mouse93,
Just a word of warning for Z6 buyers, I had ordered one with a No;4 reticle only to receive one with No;4A (the box indicated No;4)
So they returned it to the suppler and re ordered another. In the mean time prices have jumped 30%, so now I'm not impressed to say the least.
Think I might stick with S&B.
