Ultimate hunting scope...Swarovski Z8i 2.3-18x56.

I’m changing up one of my hunting rifles to be more of a long range precision rig, and although I absolutely love this scope...I no longer have a place for it. It sat on a 6.5 Grendel AR for the last year or so, and is in 100% perfect condition. The glass and low light performance is phenomenal.

This scope has the 4A-I illuminated reticle, and is currently mounted in a 1.5” high Seekins Precision MXM mount, O moa cant. I can separate if the buyer doesn’t want the mount.

Also included are Swarovski magnetic lens covers/caps, and the Ballistic Turret Flex. The turret allows you to set 5 individual rings to your specific load, similar to Leupold’s CDS that you do yourself. It’s currently setup for my Grendel, zeroed at 100, ring 2 is 200 yards, 3 is 300 yards, 4 is 400 yards, 5 is 500 yards. Buyer can easily set these to his preferred round.

For the package, I’m asking $2900 insured & shipped via USPS or UPS, buyers choice. Will consider trades for a ZCO420, ZCO527, TT 525, or a NF 7-35, all mil/mil, +/- cash on my end as needed.

For those like me that just want mil turrets the Z8i with the kit OP has it can be configured to that easily. I just use the mil turret on my 2-16x50 and 7 mils gets me plenty far on a 300 win for hunting purposes.

They are phenomenal scopes and this post is a great deal.

I’m half tempted to buy or build another hunting rifle, just to have something worth putting this scope on.

Just don’t think my wife would be too thrilled with me if I did that, along with buying the NF 7-35 that I really want to replace this with.
 
Wish i had seen this thread earlier....i just bought a used one w/ out any accessorires like this one comes with.
Probably my fav. hunting/low light scope ever.

Not sure if this is still available. Free bump if it is....

I do still have it, but decided to hang on to it. Ended up turning one of my hunting rifles into more of a long range precision rig with an ATACR 7-35 on top. I’ll be throwing this Swaro on a new hunting rifle, which will likely be a 16” Fix in 6.5 creed.
