Zeiss Conquest

Hey folks,

Currently have both Burris and Leupold scopes on my rifles and was impressed with the Zeiss Conquest scopes that I had looked at.

Anybody have any experience with this particular line from Zeiss?

I use a couple of them and found like you did that the optics are superior to the usual run of scopes.

On the other hand the 3-9 Conquest is long, heavy and has a large eyepiece.

When that level of definition is required they are the last step before the price triples to $waroville.

I have all 3 mentioned...and the Zeiss Conquest is the one I'd go for if I were in need of another.
It isn't real compact, I suppose, but the optics are wonderful, and the light gathering is terrific.
