Let us know how you like the scope once you get some range time in.

I played with them in the shop and the Swarovski felt way lighter than the ATACR 4-14x42 and 5-25x50, but it was the eyebox that was the huge difference. With both nightforce I had a hard time finding the crosshairs but with the X5i it was instant. I’m not sure if it’s how the balance is on the scope or what but the rifle felt a lot better with the X5i. I was convinced I wanted either the ATACR or the Zeiss V6 or Swarovski Z6i, then Marky planted the X5i in my head, and after checking them all out I’m so glad he did.
I’ll give a full range report once I put some lead through the pipe for sure.
I got the 4Wi reticle.
