I have always use a 3x9 scope and have been thinking about upgrading mine. So today I ordered a Zeiss Conquest HD5 3-15x42 Z-Plex scope. It was a demo and my total price was $669.00. I think I'm going to like it.

That price for that scope, you did good. the HD5 glass is a big improvement to the previous Conquest scopes and they were pretty dang good.

I have the same scope on my Remington 700. It's an incredible piece of glass and you got it at a very good price.
