Rifle Scopes Swarovski DS out to 1050 yards! - First hands-on with quick review

[jb1000br]

So I stole one of these from a friend who happened to work for Swarovski...and slapped it on my AX 6.5 Creed. I only had it for a few days till he figured out it was missing so I braved the icy, windy cold to catch some daylight and test it out to 1050 yards

It is big and expensive of course, but it worked like a charm and did everything it was supposed to

It sounds like an impressive optic. I have heard similar good things about it. Tks for report.

I'm guessing this wouldnt range with a M2124LR in front would it?

No it wouldnt, but it would range in complete darkness so if you can flip the light amplifier tube to the side, range, flip it back that would work. Not necessarily work for You or anyone else for that matter, but in itself it would work.

Hello: I recently purchased the gen ii ds. This weekend went to the range for 100 year zero. Noticed two follwoings:
1) Don't see the wind hold mark. Is this because I was ranging at 100 yards and wind hold are not necessary? Wind was about 10mph and I selected to show wind hold on the app.
2) I see time to time a red box inside the scope, is this because of the low light? When I aim the scope at more light the red box goes off. The weather was cloudy this weekend in Bethel Alaska.
Ds is a great scope and I am liking it.
Thanks.
