The Swarovski Z6i 2-12x50 scope is 34 centimeters long and lightweight, weighing 550 grams. This is considered below average for 50-millimeter objective lens scopes, which will owners of light rifles appreciate the most.

The Z6i 2-12x50 scope has hunting turrets with audible clicks that are one centimeter per hundred meters. The parallax is fixed at 100 meters.

The Swarovski Z6i 2-12x50 is equipped with a 4A-I reticle positioned in the second focal plane, making it thin at maximum magnification. The reticle covers two millimeters of the area at hundred meters and is illuminated.

The Swarovski scope has a smaller and lower illumination system which is very easy to operate compared to gen 1. It can be switched between daytime bright mode and low light mode and the two buttons on each side allow for fine-tuning. The reticle illumination works from really dim settings for low-light use and high-intensity levels for daytime use, making it one of the best available illuminated reticle systems.

The plastic, low-profile turrets have a pleasant feel and are dependable in tracking. The windage turret holds the spare battery for illumination.

The BDC turret on the Z6i 2-12x50 scope is marked with clicks and distances. It can be zeroed at 100 meters, with color-coded dots representing different distances up to 400 meters in 45 clicks. The second generation of these turrets has a locking mechanism and black rings instead of silver for better visibility.

A Personal Ballistic Cam

Swarovski has created a personalized ballistic cam system that replaces the need for color-coded dots on a rifle's turret scopes. It gathers data on the rifle, ammunition, and ballistic info, so customers can be given distances in easy-to-use numbers like 3, 4, 5 or 300m, or 400m. This is extremely helpful when there is limited time to take the shot.

Mounting solution

The Swarovski SR standard mounting rail is the recommended method for mounting the Z6i 2-12x50 riflescope as it provides stability, strength, and reliability while allowing the optical performance to be at its best.
