I have a Proof Research Glacier TI 6.5 PRC but originally scoped it with a Kahles K525I but as im shooting less and less and it has primarily turned into my hunting rifle im trying to lighten it up. I had a 5# rifle and put a 35oz scope on it and to me walking around or shooting it in the woods or back-county it feels top heavy.
I immediately went
Swaro Z5I 3.5 x 18 x44 weighing 15.9oz
Swaro Z6 3-18x50 weighing 21oz
NF NX8 MOAR 2.5-20 weighing 28.3
*Nightforce is to close to Kahles so kind of ruling that out.
Am I losing durability and glass issue quality going with lightweight?
Its been a give and take trying to find sweet spot.
