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.

For that price I'd think so. Good buy

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.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

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.
