ZEISS scope

[Johnn Peterson]

Most of my scopes are Leupold and they've served me well . In the latest edition of Petersen's Hunting I see an interesting advert for a Zeiss VICTORY Diarange 3-12x56T* . Technology marches on but it looks like MEGA $$$$$$! Anyone have one, seen or 'played' with one? If so, any comments or thoughts??

Zeiss

I've been wondering about that scope as well - that's the one with the integral range-finder?
I'm hoping that Bushnell or someone will come out with a less expensive one, but haven't heard anything yet.

This scope has not a rangefinder or something special.
I got some Zeiss 3-12x56 and other Swarowski.

o.k. the difference is that in Europe is Nighthunting allowed. Not for all species but for Foxes, Wild boar, and cats, dogs ( only if they poacher)

by law you can not use electronic like Nightvision or a flashlight on the gun.

So Zeiss and Swarowski made the best Rifle scope at all in Fact. But the only difference is, when you watch through the scope the Picture is brilliant bright.
That means the Light also weak light comes very good through. That is depending on the glass how they grinded the glasses.

The Leupold hasn`t got that, but in Canada you dont need that. Nighthunting is prohibited.
The lower cost Zeiss is the productal line conquest. Zeiss conquest are cheaper, but you know.....the glass (Okular and Objektive ) is not as well as the ....x56

Andreas-37 I just looked at a 3-12X56 this weekend and fell in love with it. How do you like yours compared to the Swarovski? Also how high of a ring did you use on what gun?

Thanks
