Post by: high country on November 11, 2010, 06:11:18 AM: they are pretty much the best deal in the $400 range. meopta and minox have some pretty good offerings now too, but are unproven. one of my zeiss' is 10yo (+/-) and is beat to death, yet still tracks well and works great. it has spent its whole life on lightweight 300winne and 300rums.

Post by: Ingwe on November 12, 2010, 08:41:41 PM: I had one on a .338 win mag. After about 100 shots it went bad. I went from 1" groups to 10" groups.Sent it back to Zeiss and they replaced it. They would not tell me what went wrong. It was real clear and bright. I am back to Leupold now.

Post by: sakoshooter on December 23, 2010, 02:41:20 AM: I've had one on my Sako 30.06 and besides helping me put my tag on 5 nice mulies, it's had about 500 other rounds run thru it working up handloads. Excellent scope. I like it much better than my two Leupold VXII's on my two other hunting rifles.
