    I’ve got a z5,z6 and a z8! Hands down a z6 over a the 5. Better field of view at all the compared same mag ranges. The z6 is in mills so slightly more elevation if you are using the bt model. And sharper image (to me anyway). And then there is the z8. Better again over the z6. Worth the extra $$$$$ not really.

    Shame Swaro's reticle options are stuck in the 1980's...

    Was meant to be a reply to someone saying conquests are USA assembled as they were saying the z3 and z5 are too
