I finally had the opportunity and got a Swarovski scope. Now I haven’t had the chance to use it yet but I have mounted on my rifle. Decided to get the scope with TDS recticles and hopefully will work very well with my 270 WSM.
I’ve compared my Swaro in appearance and details to my Leupolds, Nikon Gold and my Weaver Grand Slam and find that the Swaro just has something about that shines with quality. The finish on the scope is excellent.
The ability to rotate the power ring with ease is equal between the Grand Slam and the Swaro. I find that to be a factor when deer hunting in November and could get pretty cold up here.
I also compared the quality of the optics and found that the Nikon Gold to be very close to the Swaro but the Leupold lacks in that department. I have never had the chance to make any comparisin with the Zeiss Conquest but would be interesed in doing so.
I know that some freinds of mine think I’m nuts in spending that type of money on a scope but the end result is that I’m the one spending the money and not them, so it’s really none of there businnes is it.
I’m sure that after using this scope at the range and getting it ready for the season that I’m not going to be disapointed in my purchase. Good luck with the purchase of your scope.
