Sold Swarovski Z5 or Z6 3-18 BT 4W

[Jrodanapolis]

Hi All,
New Rokslide member, but have been lurking for about a year and have been planning my mountain hunting rifle setup. I ended up with a Tikka T3x Roughtech in 300 WM and bought a Z3 for it, but would like to upgrade it to a Z5 or a Z6. I haven't mounted the Z3 yet - bought it, then started reading about the leaf spring vs the 4 coil springs for larger calibers, and decided I'd like a little more zoom range.
I could work with one of the 2-12's, but think I'd really like the 3-18 (3.5-18 for the Z5). My eyes have always been bad - I got Lasik a few years back, but my friends still rip on my vision being poor when fishing and/or glassing. My fun/practice rifle has a 2-10 on it, which works well, but wouldn't mind quite a bit more zoom on the upper end.
I definitely want a ballistic turret, and would prefer a 4W reticle if possible.
Hoping to stay around $1k for a Z5. As much as I'd love a Z6, I know that would push my budget limits, but hoping I might be able to find one for $1500?
Let me know what you have and hopefully I can finally dial this new Tikka in!
Thank you,
Jared

I have a z5 ballistic turret 3.5-18x44 BT. New this year. Went on a few elk hunts (covered the whole time). Less than 50 rounds through it on my 300wsm. Has killed one elk. Just going back to Leupold. Id part with the leupold rings too. Shoot me a message with any questions.

Why back to leupold just out of curiosity?

Its hard to beat that z5, but I just have some weird guilt about spending that much for a scope with a new kid and when I can have a very very similar experience with a used vx-5hd. Plus its on a gun that im not actually sure when I’ll use it again since my elk hunts are at least a few years out. I love the idea of being able to put it on different guns, zero it and then download the clicks for the turret. So sweet.

Thank you guys for all of the messages and comments - got myself a Z5 and can't wait to get her dialed in.
Will be selling the Z3 in a few weeks when things calm down just a bit.
