    Swarovski vs Other Top Tier Optics

    Thanks, I know, I got the answers. I am on AR15.com as well. Just asked here, as it seemed more like a hunting focussed forum, that is all. I got the Swaro Z6i by the way. The Z6i 2.5-15 x56. Had an issue with the diopter wheel but fixed it and it has been awesome since then. The glass IMHO is...

    Upgrade from a Tikka T3x 270

    Well by the way as an update, got the PR Elevation in 6.5 for a good deal, so bought it.

    That is correct. Not planning on getting a competition scope with big turrets. Looking at the S&B Polar T96 which is a good hunting scope.

    Upgrade from a Tikka T3x 270

    Hmmm..just at the right time. Now you have got me thinking on the viability of the X-Bolt HC. Since I am building a custom one anyways next year, maybe I should just get a Tikka stainless barrelled one in 6.5 CM for this year. No, I haven’t checked out the Bergara yet. How is their QC and...

    Yes, I have. The T3x Tac is a bit heavier than the X-Bolt at 8.5 LBS. Plus, I think the X-Bolt HC Speed is built a bit better.

    For the under $1200 rifle I was comparing between the Browning X-Bolt Hells Canyon Speed and the Tikka T3x Stainless in 6.5 Creedmoor. Seems like the X-Bolt HC Speed is a bit better of the two. What are your opinions?

    6.5 Creedmoor Rifle Suggestions

    Is the Hornady ELD-X in 6.5 good ammo for hunting deer ?

    Agreed mate! After much thought and research I decided that in a factory over the counter rifle, there are some things I like and some things don't (for the high-price you are paying I mean). So, decided, will get something under $1200 this year and build a custom one for the next year.

    Good choice OP. Enjoy the rifle in good health.

    6.5 Creedmoor Rifle Suggestions

    To the credit of the posters above, the CA rifles do look cool. I handled a CA Mesa at Cabelas and it seemed nice. The trigger and feel of it all. I almost ordered the new CA Traverse but held back after reading several issues from the users regarding the bedding of the barrels and poor customer...

    Swarovski vs Other Top Tier Optics

    Coming to the one we were talking about, how do the below three compare? Schmidt & Bender Swarovski Leica I guess I read somewhere Leica glass is the clearest of all. With the S&B’s being good in the dawn and dusk conditions.

    I understand the Leupolds have a strong fan following and the glass is very clear as well. I have a VX3i myself, very nice for the price. Was just looking at the next level optics.

    I too prefer exposed turrets and first focal plane.

    What about the Schmidt & Benders? They seem to be pretty high quality too. People who use them swear they are better than the Swarovskis.

    Swarovski vs Other Top Tier Optics

    Thanks for educating me. Edited the opening post and added a bit more technical details. By the way might be dialing with it if needed as I hunt from improvised tree stands. Usually set it to 200m and then take it from there wherever needed.
