What is your opinion of the Meopta line of scopes? Pro's & con's. How do they rate compared to Leupold, Zeiss, Nikon, & etc?

Great scope imo, I have several and for the money the glass is exceptional. I dont have any in 1" dia all mine are 30mm and as I cull swcopes out that is the line I go to.
I cant see much difference in a 800 meopta vs Leupold or my ziess that cost a chunk more.

I have four pieces of Meopta glass and think they have a fine product.

I got the Cabelas Euro scope which is made by Meopta. 3x9 42. I was sighting it in a couple of weeks ago and when I finished it was 9:15 at night, could still see the target very well.

I have several of the Meopro series. I have been very impressed with the scopes and binoculars. Mine have all been very dependable and all have tracked well. For the money, I don't think you can do beat the 3.5-10x44. I can tell you that Meopro lasted longer at dusk and tracked better than (2) VX3 scopes I had. I would rank the Meopro a little better than the VX3 but not as good as the VX6. I don't think Nikon makes a hunting scope as good as the Meopro.

I talked with the Cabelas guy yesterday that told me more of the Euro (made by Meopta) scopes will be on "doorbusters" sale soon...

Nosler reloading products are 25% off as well, which is lower than my employee discount!

I have the Meopro 3.5-10x44 purchased last year from CLNY. I also work the gun counter at Cabela's. The Cabela's Euro made by Meopta doesn't seem to have as good of glass as my Meopro. I wonder if the Euro is made to a price point that is lower in quality than the Meopro.
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

Have an older scope, great glass, a little heavy and seems to have shorter eye relief than normal, but I am impressed with it and will have more of them in the future.

Great German glass for the money. I have 3 of them and they all are great, especially the Meostar with FFP.
