[QUOTE="One Hole, post: 1331752, member: 90934"] Hey Jimsbriar. I'm also a north Idaho black timber and brush beater. I haven't read all of the posts but I am wondering if cost isn't a problem go with a Swarovski Z6 2-12 or 3-18. There is a big difference between the Z5 and Z6s. I am all about American made and have shot Leupold s. Most of my life but nothing they build compares to a Z6. How many rounds of ammo do the small weight differences you describe equate to? A high end scope is not the place to skimp on weight. You want a strong rugged tube and tracking mechanism especially with wicked recoiling rifles. I've shot a Z6 3-18 with BR recticle on top a Borden Alpine Mag in 300wsm for 15 years and can't imagine a better mountain rifle up for up here. Just over 7lbs. [/QUOTE]
