I just noticed on the Cabela's website that Zeiss has a $50 mail in rebate for rapid Z reticles, if I can get that in addition to my $40 (10%) off, then I might be able to reall get a steal on this scope.

You can get a Minox from Cameraland (rated as good as or better than Conquest) for $259. If you can find a better deal than that, you are stealing it.

I prefer the Zeiss Conquest, have switched over all my rifles to the conquest. Great optics and I really like the quick focus feature.

The Eurp Diamonds are nice as well. Speaking of them, is the LRS an illuminated reticle? I know they are discontinued but I noticed you still had some on the sample list. I might have to pick one of these for myself, especially if this is a lighted reticle. SWFA Sample List Burris-25-10x50 Euro Diamond Yes sir, I have two left and it is illuminated.

I have shot zeiss and leopold side by side in low light. This is comparing 3x9-40's in both brands. The Leopold is a 10 year old VX2 the zeiss is newer by a little some. I think they are both great scopes and honestly canot tell a difference between the two sitting in the blind with both of them at the same time, mine is leopold his is zeiss. I like the crosshairs on the zeiss better, but that is about all I can say. Never had a problem with either scope, and if I ever need to buy another I will keep my options open, but in my opinion the difference between them must be so small that it is irrelevent.
