enter me in the swarovski Z5 rifle scope contest

Hi gentleman I have both scopes in question. the Swarovski with ultra fine reticle,I have owned 12 or so years and cannot fault it.I fitted it to my Blaser T2 338LM rig and took Himalayan Tahr out to 1600metres,with no problems,I then put an NXS NPR1 on it and although the opportunity hasn't...

Hello gents I hesitated for a short while before joining this thread. I have a Swarovski 6x24x50,have owned it since 1995 and have taken many,many game animals and predators with it,both day and at night on the spotlight,legal in the U.K and New Zealand where I now live.it still has wonderful...

Hi there. I know nothing about the 6mm,but but with the 25-06 I have shot an Elk bull,Red deer stags,wild pigs,chamois,and Himalayan Bull Tahr (renowned for their tough skin and very muscular bodies) The furthest shot to date was at 600metres on my rangefinder. It (the 25-06) punches well...

Going to get an NXS 12x42x56 for my 338LM Just put an NXS 5.5x22x56 on my Blaser R93 prof 25-06. Will put the swarovski off my 25-06 on a 7mmMag barrel for same rifle. Got Leica geovid BRF Got Swarovski ATS spotter. Done.

I'm a left hander and love that rifle Shawn. Why don't you bring it to New Zealand and I will take you on a Himalayan bull Tahr hunt. (the bad boys of alpine regions,living on glaciers and the steepest ****** terrain.)including transport and accomodation,might even treat you to a chopper trip...

I studied a few different packs for alpine hunting(Himalayan Tahr and chamois in the south island of new zealand).I thought the gunslinger a bit small for my body size with no adjustment for back length. I settled on a j105 and lost it in a river crossing with all my gear and have just...

Thanks for the article it was an excellent read and very informative thank you, I wonder if it is not just down to the ballistics,is it because behind us down the track aways people would use a hunting calibre for long range target shooting,the smaller calibres you talk about indeed have the...

I am also an avid user of 25-06. I have a Blaser R93 professional in L\H 25-06. I use 55grains of ADI (made in australia)and 117grain SST,federal large rifle primers and winchester brass,my load is not that hot and I can get at least ten reloads before primer pocket loosening and case neck...

Hi there. I'm not sure about your choice of scopes for your new rig In my opinion you should go the whole hog and get a nightforce or similar quality scope. Quality of optics always pays in the end and you won't go past the NXS for that. I have a Blaser LRS 2 tactical in 338 Lapua and have...
