[QUOTE="mtank, post: 1083939, member: 87990"] I went w/the 5x25x52 because I wanted to do a fair comparison to my Zeiss Hd5 5x25x50. The swaro is definitely a little brighter & crisper than the hd5. You can get the z5 in the 3x18x44. I'm not one of these guys that gets all worked up on the weight but my z5 comes in @ roughly 10 ounces lighter than my hd5. I got the standard Plex w/ballistic turret. I've yet to sight it in but have done about 5 late evening low light tests between the two. I've heard two complaints w/the leupold vx6. 1st knob adjust & ease of knobs turning. 2nd they don't track as good as they should. Oh & my setup is a hunting setup Remington 700 7mag. The salesman told me he sales a lot of the Z5s to sheep hunters because of its brightness & clarity in low light. I don't think you'll go wrong either way but if you're like me you'll overthink it to hell n back. [/QUOTE]
