    Leupold VX-3I 3.5-10x40 vs Swarovski Z3 3-10x42

    I own a vx3 4.5-14X42mm with 30mm objective and have a 3.5-10x42 on my 3006 the swarovski is my scope brand of choice. If I had my time again i'd go the Z5 2.5-12 x50 with Ballistic turrets. The Ballistic Turrets are awesome and simple to use.

    Dangerous Game Rifle Caliber for an Enthusiast

    Hunting scope

    A few years back I upgraded to Z3s on a number of rifles. They are brilliant scopes and you won't be disappointed. My only wish is that they did the 3.5-10x42 with the ballistic turrets!
