RE: Upgrading scopes
I spent 3 hours @ the range today, trying different loads in 3 rifles. 1 had a Weaver Grand Slam 4.75 x 40, another had a Vortex Razor 2-7x33, and the last had the Conquest. The 1st 2 scopes are certainly not slouches, but the Zeiss is just on a whole 'nother level - just a joy to look through. Each time I shoulder that rifle, I'm soooooo glad I matched it with the Conquest.
Try one out, & let us know what you think!
