Has anyone here had firsthand experience with both of these scopes? I was looking at the 1.7-10x42 Z6, but was wondering if it's worth the extra money over the Z5?

What's the difference?

The glass is likely the same, but the magnification is different. The Z6 seems have a development in range of magnification. Always buy the best glass you can afford. what's a few hundred more dollars if your spending over a thousand already.

This is obviously a brag thread, but I couldn't pass up looking at the newest scopes.

Neither. If you're spending that kind of money buy a Schmidt and Bender.

Zero experience with the upper levels but I love my Z3. Clear is an understatement and unrivaled light gathering.
