Brought home a new long range rifle today in a Sako 85 finnlight chambered in 270wsm and topped it with a Swarovski Z5 3-18x44 ballistic turret scope.

Comes together right at 7.5 lbs so it should be nice to carry just about anywhere. Just need to find the time to stretch its legs out to 600 yards or so.

Very nice hunting rig! I wish they would make a left handed version.

How do you like your Z5? The one I had was awesome during the day but I couldn't see the dang reticle at first and last light.
 
I love the Z5. I will agree that several of the swarovski reticles are very thin and can be hard to see in low light. I have the 4W reticle on mine and it's fairly thick, about the same as my Leupold VX3 reticles which I find to be ok in low light.

I wouldn't want the BRX reticle as it's extremely thin.
