(Please be advised that there is currently no available option to retrofit the Zeiss Rapid-Z reticles into previously purchased Zeiss riflescopes with a standard reticle. This is to ensure that customers who want to purchase a new Zeiss riflescope with the Rapid-Z reticle are given priority attention. We thank you for your understanding.)
