Does anyone know what the scopes reticle specs are or what the measurement on the drops are? I've checked their main site and not had any luck.

It's not the BR1. I was able to find a pic. on Optics Planet, but it had no information about it. Midway has the scope in stock, but again no info on the BRT.

Re: Swarovski Z6 1-6x BRT reticle
the drop is in Mils but they offer a calculator so it will work with a lot of calibers http://ballisticprograms.swarovskioptik.com/BRT_us.html
I've got a couple here, if yall need anything specific let me know

Re: Swarovski Z6 1-6x BRT reticle
I've got the Z6i 1-6x with new BRT reticle. The drops are .75 mils. They are not full mils. This threw me for a major loop at first when nothing was hitting where it was "supposed" to.
I finally found and used the calculator on Swarovski's site. I ran their numbers with my ballistic calculator and figured out that they are .75 mil drops. I confirmed this on paper.
I use it for 3 gunning and it works really well. With my 2800 FPS 69gr SMKs, zero it at 175 yds, and the drops are at 300-400-475-550-etc.

Been looking at that scope as well... How bright is the illuminated dot compared to other illuminated scopes?

It's extremely bright and also adjustable. The center dot is the only thing illuminated on the BRT. It's a nice and small dot so it doesn't obscure far targets like the CD-I reticle does (big center dot). I've got a CD-I Z6i as well and like the BRT much better.
