Should be able to make one easy enough, or buy one the right size.

Well I am certainly glad I took everyones advice.
I shot my little 22 Anschutz today with the 3-9 Swarovski and it was a real treat to use. I certainly didn't have any issues with parralax at 50m.
Scope was very clear and repeatable.

10 mm group with RWS High Velocity.
And the below 40 shot group.
Wind was terrible with strong westerly winds, but I am happy with my little 22. :D

Geez I am loving this Anschutz Swarovski combination.
I shot another group this morning when there was less wind.
20 shots in reasonably quick succession.
I am confident it is now sighted in.

You might kill something with that if your not careful. Show us some picks when you do.

I have forgotten how much fun a .22 is.
Good practice.

Actually I am a Zeiss man all my life, as was my father.
However I have always wanted a Swarovski 3-9x36 because of the weight and great glass.

That's fine.
I think we all have our preferences and personal choices, but I think it's important to remember that just because we like a particular brand it does not mean their are not other good brands.
I love my Blasers, but hey there are other great rifles as well... :D

Brilliant Allan. I love that petite scope as well and thinking to put one on my rimfire (never used it for years now) one day. So I would say You made a brilliant choice and hope You have lots of success and fun with this great combo... ;-)

For a fee, you can in the US send your Z3 in to Swarovski, and they will set your parallax for rimfire ranges.not sure if this is an option in other countries.
