scope for a 22-250 ???

[Guest]

Would like a scope for a 22-250 AI. Would like to have a low power for the low end magnification and a fairly wide range of power. The Swarovski Z5 3.5-18 seems to be pretty good. It also has a 44mm objective ... large enough for good light gathering but not so high as to be excessively bulky. It is light weight and compact. A bit pricey though ....

Would like to hear from those who have used Swarovski scopes. Are they good quality, clear and durable. DO THEY TRACT ACCURATELY when you dial for long distance and return back to normal zero? In other words will they do well on a "box test". The dials are rather small. Are they easy to use .... are the clicks audiable and easily felt? Any and all input would be appreciated?

Is there a better deal for the money?

What will you be shooting and how far do you realistically plan to shoot?

coyotes, crows, targets, and hopefully a couple prairie dog management opportunities. from here to 500 mostly& maybe up to 600 yards on occasions.

I have yet to use any of the Swaro rifle scopes -

With that said, I just put a 6.5 X 20 Zeiss on my .300 RUM -

I like the small fine cross-hairs and Zeiss has a $150.00 rebate going on on their Varmint Reticle.
This reticle would potentially get you out to 600yds easy enough.
