Has anyone had a chance to compare these two scopes? The Swarovsky X5 seems to be a more robust version of their "Z" series, I do prefer the floating + reticle of the Swarovsky over the Zeiss reticle. As my eyes get older glass clarity/quality is becoming more of a priority, both scopes are known for their glass quality does the Swarovsky offer enough advantages to justify the extra $700.00?
I do alot of range shooting during the summer, out to 700 yards so I would be looking at the 5-25 or 5-30 power models
