This is my second Zeiss Conquest. I have the 3X9-40 on my T/C. For the money these scopes are hard to beat. I have a Burris Euro Diamond & the Zeiss are clearer in my opinion. The turrets have positive clicks. I will be adding the Kenton Industries custom elevation target turret on the 50mm later. Dollar for dollar, an excellent scope.

I use this scope on a .22-250 varmint / target rifle. The bright image through this scope allows me to see impacts at 300yd when my spotter cant with his Bushnell Elite 4200 8-32x. That should tell you how clear the image is. I always go for target-style turrets on scopes, which to me is a necessity on a scope without any holdover points in the reticle. These turrets have nice clicks, but a bit on the soft side for me. The reticle does stay nice and black, never 'washing out' in certain light. To finish off, it's very light with just a 1" tube, yet maintains good elevation adjustment for long shots.

This scope is fantastic, the glass on it produces a bright and clear image at all times of day, and at night it's still wonderfully good. all adjustments are positive clicks, both tactile and audible. they are repeatable too. It's quick to sight in, especially with the mildots, as one can estimate not only range but how far off zero the previous shot was. one thing i was slightly disappointed about was that the crosshairs didn't change with the zoom setting, making range estimation far easier, but the mil-dots are accurate at 14x, so I just leave it at that setting.The crosshairs themselves are extremely fine, making it easy to see a 1 inch target at 100 yards. all in all a fantastic scope no matter the application. I'd highly recommend it.

The optics in the Zeiss 4.5-15x50mm are the brightest and clearest i have seen the Rapid Z-1000 reticle works great and is very simple to use once you do your zero @500 yards and it matches the ballistics on the .308 caliber bullet. This scope with the target turrets in my opinion is better than all others in its price range. Zeiss also makes the cream of the crop in rifle scopes Hensoldt is there top of the line Military grade scope and they also make the glass for IOR Valdada scopes so they know how to make a good scope. Can't go wrong with a Zeiss.
