Hey guys,

FNG here, getting back into shooting and hunting. Have a Remington 700 SS 5R in 308 to be picked up early feb. The scope is a swarovski Z6i 2.5 - 15 X 56 mm obj. with iluminated reticle and ballistic turret. does anyone here have any knowledge or experience with this scope?

I have a 2.5-15 x44 and if I'm not mistaken your model also has the .36"/ 100 yards which will really help get that turret out as far as possible compared to the others that are 1/4 moa or less in the higher powers. I have that scope on an AR setup and it is absolutely sweet for coyotes and is absolutely clearer than a bell along with being nice and light. Much crisper than my nightforces, leupolds, and vortex razor HD but its also a lot more moola compared to those too. I have ran that thing up and down with the ballistic turret and it seems to track well. I did a box test with it on a bolt gun and it did absolutely what it was asked.

Great scope, wish the turret had more adjustment and of course an external windage knob and it would be awesome. Enjoy a beautiful piece of glass!

I have one. Works quite well. I used it and the Bulletflight app on my iPhone to shoot a 250 lb boar at 561 yds with a 300 wm. It spun around once and collapsed.

Was not hard to set up or figure out. Really a great hunting scope.
