New Guns & Gear for 2021—Swarovski Optik Integrates Digital Intelligence into new ds GEN II

From Swarovski Optik

Swarovski Optik, a subsidiary of the Austrian based company, announces the dS GEN II riflescope, improving upon our new generation of riflescopes. The new design is slimmer and has greater distance between the magnification adjustment ring making it even easier to operate the adjustment ring when aiming.

The new dS GEN II shows not only the correct aiming point, but also the key ballistic data in the heads-up display without any distraction and in real time. Now with the option to select the G7 Ballistic Coefficient or the G1 Ballistic Coefficient providing added precision. As well as optional trajectory correction by means of impact point deviation (only necessary to measure muzzle velocity, BC calculation by means of impact point deviation).

The windage mark intervals are calculated based on the distance measured, the wind speeds set, and the ballistic data. Featuring five different wind speeds which can be switched via the App.

The new Gen II display features distance, muzzle velocity, energy, bullet flight time and an alignment indicator to show if the scope is level that clearly provides you with all the hunting data that can contribute to a successful hunt. With even more customization having six reticles to choose from and the ability to adjust the thickness of the lines and dots in the App.

The scope requires networking with a smartphone. Exchanging data is simple and straightforward via the Bluetooth® interface. The personal ballistic data entered is input directly into the dS app and transmitted immediately.

SWAROVSKI OPTIK has enhanced our already developed “smart” rifle scope, which provides hunters with even more intelligent support. Technical and long-range optical innovations, combined with the hunter’s own expertise, make it possible to remain totally focused even in challenging situations.

And if you’ve ever wondered which reticle is best, wire or etched, here’s what the experts had to say.
