Originally posted by scbigben28I have a zeiss conquest on my 7mm rem mag. The scope is a perfect setup for the rifle. You can get the Conquest for under $400 and I would put its glass up against anything else in its price range. I see no need for a 50mm bell on a 3x9 scope. The 40mm objective gathers all the light that could be used until you get to much larger magnifications. The 40mm will also allow you to use medium rings which will allow the scope to sit closer to the barrel and will be less likely to get hit.

That scope is now pretty much the Terra line, big rebates on them if you shop around. You can find them for about $250.00. It carries the Ziess name but the components are outsourced and assembled in the states. They are good scopes though. The Conquest has gone to the HD series and is going to be the midrange line.
Its all about marketing.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.
