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.

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.

Might as well get the bike out from the garage and come get it. For some reason I thought you guys were in Austin/SA area, not DFW.

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.

Well, you won't be disappointed. Can't go wrong with that scope.

You made a great choice. This will last you a long time if you take proper care of it.
