You know what they say about opinions. I'll put my SB up against any Leupould any time of the day, especially at dusk. When you are straining to see I'll be counting points on the rack.

Done hearing about the overpriced Germanhipe when we have the BEST made right here in the USA for a lot less money and the best warranty in the optics industry.

I agree with you stubblejumper. I would much prefer a Zeiss Conquest over a VXIII. I've got a VXIII on my Winchester Model 70 .270 and a Conquest on my Armalite AR-50. I like the Conquest better. It seems to be clearer and brighter.

The Leupold is a good quality scope with excellent customer service but I wouldn’t say that they are superior...

Give a guy a break about liking his Leupold!I have a few and I like them! I just puta ancient 2x7 on my AR and there's nothing wrong with it.If someone enjoys what they have and not knocking yours then say congratulations and let him be!Besides I haven't noticed anyone offering to step up to buy him a S/B,Nikon,Zeiss,...I have different brands,some for different reasons and purposes,they work and that what counts.I have seen self apointed experts on scopes get their butts handed to them when some unassuming gentleman steps up with iron sites and whipps them at long range...it's as simple as use what you like and practice as much as you can!Not saying I have anything against one brand or another(except Simmons),hell give me a great price on a Nikon and it work for me then you can call me happy!Face it folks there is no universal scope for everyone and every need...maybe that why there's varying opinions and brands to choose from.Rant over,we were digressing to grade school sounds of "my Daddy can whip your Daddy" talk.The gentleman is very pleased with his Leupy and I am proud of a member that is satisfied with his choice.Now group hug and pick on me!

Well said! I really can't understand everybody slamming american made/OWNED products-I bet those same guys drive toyotas or something and wonder why american companys are struggling. It seems that everybody has to slam a good time tested american OWNED product. Just because they prefer something else don't mean it's junk. The problem is exactly what you said-instead of us banding together,we are segragating and that's where the antis are gaining ground. Just because I hunt with something else don't mean I'm going to say everything but my brand/caliber/model/type is junk.Wake up people!Everybody don't have the money that you do. By the way-zeiss conguest IS higher than vari X 3.
