Good question. And you would guess right. I would pick name and reputation if the same price. I have more experience with conquests, and VariX III's. I have sent back and used the warranty on both and know what to expect with ziess and leupold. I only have around 1-2 years experience with elite series. And not had to send in either. So until I got some more experience under my belt with elites, I would pick the Ziess.
Thanks for answering. You made my choice allot easier...
