    I’m a week or so into z8i ownership and super impressed so far. Have 2.5-20 & 4-32 nx8’s and the z8 is better optically . The ease of putting the turrets back to zero is awesome, I have three calibers for my hybrid and it was a bit of a juggle when changing barrels. Now I just change to the previous dope for each barrel then put a shot through to check , then click the turret off and put back on at zero . Farken awesome, 3.5-28 z8i would be perfect if it had a two turn turret .

    That's interesting, I wonder what will happen with prices.
    If it still ends up cheaper to pay for a holiday in Australia and pick up a scope while over there I don't see much changing.

    NF Ultralite rings are my favorite scope rings, might be able to buy them new now rather than hunting out used pairs.
    Maybe an ATACR 4-16x42 could be in my near future if prices become normal.
