Bigbulls,
I agree that the 2x7-36 would be more than enough for my Omega especially for hunting whitetail here in Wisconsin. However, is it enough scope to use on my 7mm WSM when I use it in your neck of the woods for elk or bear? If a 2x7- 36 is all I need the difference in price between the 2x7 and 3x9 is $89.00. Is it worth it?

I'm looking at the Zeiss Conquest 3x9-40 and the Kahles 3x9-42.
Cabelas lists the Zeiss at $429.99, and the Kahles at $589.99.
