I mean no harm to TRACT as a company. I wish them success. I didn't post this as an argument with nor a rebuke to anyone. I just thought my perspective might be illuminating to someone else. I really like to hear what other folks think about products, especially ones that are mail-order.
waterdoctor stated, "I'm fairly convinced that the TRACT outshone the Bushnell by an easy margin." I can assure you that it did not. I can also assure you that I am not a liar. I hope I'm misunderstanding your intent with that statement.
I don't have a Swaro Z5 to know how it would stack up to any scope. I do have Leica ERi, Zeiss Victory HT, S&B Klassik, Zeiss V4, Meopta Optika5, Trijicon Credo, etc. All of these scopes are better optically than the Elite 4500 I compared to the TRACT Toric.
My experience is 180 from yours I find Tract Toric glass and precision to be excellent infact very comparable to my S&Bs
