We chose the Z8i 2-16x50 for our 300WM.The 1.7-13 Swarovski is the one I’m looking at for the Blaser R8 375 H&H. Think that’s a very good choice as that Caliber lends itself to both close and longer shots as does that scope. If I go with the 300 win mag for a second barrel, I’d probably go with the 2.3-18 for that. Both with Contessa QD mounts.
Have to say the Leupold VX6HD, both variants I’ve purchased, have exceeded my expectations. Not V8 glass but I’d put it up against the 5 or 6 series Swarvo glass. Our pals at EuroOptics did me right on the price for the 1-6 when it was on sale. B&H Photo on the 2-12’s at a little over a grand a piece...got the last two they had![]()
Figured it would be plenty of glass for hunting distances.
Although going to x16 would be nice as well.
Send me a PM if you want to talk about the Contessa mounts, we have 3.
