Was thinking about buying the 3x10x42. Any opinions on this scope?

I've got a 4-12x50 Swarovski scope I bought a decade plus ago sitting on a 300 Weatherby. Anything Swarovski puts their name on is a damn good scope.

I have the 4x12-50 on my 300 wsm and absolutely love it. I believe that Nikons are the best bang for your buck and have several of them and it obviously blows them away. My dad believes Leupold is the best for your buck and it blows his several away too. Granted, the Swaro cost more but the difference in clarity is worth it. I got mine on sale for a hair over $800 and my only regret is not buying 5 more of them at that time.

Can't argue with that. They are definitely in the top tier of optics manufacturers. I inherited a 7mm mag abolt with a swarovski 3x12x56 that is still in perfect condition and was bought in the early-mid 90's

I've got a 3.5-12x56 I bought used from a guy needing some cash about 10 years ago and I can't imagine there being anything you could buy being better.

Great! Can't wait to put it on my 7mm-08. Might have to save some more to put on the xbolt 280!

My Z3 is very comfortable on my Xbolt. They compliment each other very nicely.

Beware if you get it, you will become spoiled to good glass and will never be able to buy any inferior optics again, it becomes an expensive road to travel


That being said I love my swar z3 and my swar binos
