Swarovski Z3 4-12x50?

[MTGunner]

Have an opportunity to purchase a new Z3 4-12x50 BRX on sale to replace my Burris Compact. This will be mounted on my Rem. 700 260AI that has little to no recoil due to a Holland brake. Need input from his informative forum. Thanx for the help. MTG

The Swaro, optically, will be superior to the Burris.

Not sure what you need help with, the Swaro is a fantastic scope. I have the Z3 4-12x50 BT on my 280AI and love it. I also got it for a song, and it was the first scope I've put on this rifle. I've got a Sportsmans turret on the way. I used it for my elk on Afognak Island this year and don't have a single complaint. The 50mm objective is BRIGHT all the way through the magnification.

Yup that swaro is a great scope!

Just mounted the same scope except BT model this weekend. Haven't shot it yet but it is clear and very bright. Very impressed so far.

How reliable is the turret repeatability? I've seen some bad reviews on it but not sure if it was user error or not. looking at getting one since the ballaistic turet system is so simple.

I’m curious on this as well.

Not reliable for twisting turrets.
Get the BRH and hold over. BRX is too fine for a hunting rifle in low light.
