Friday afternoon I sat with my grandson, he had his 4200 Elite. A swirling wind and a blowing doe messed up the afternoon, but we sat till he said he couldn't see anymore. I looked through his scope and it was getting very poor visibility, so I put my Diavari on the rail and scanned the field. I found a raccoon walking across the field, could see his tail rings clearly, but couldn' see the coon with his Elite. ( the game warden has told me he sits with his Schmitt & Bender till he can't see unless there is moonlight)

TC, how does Zeiss' Conquest scopes compare to their Diavari scopes?

I've never looked through the Conquest. I've seen it compared as similar to the Elite 4200 by several people, including the SWFA optics forum. The Diavari is rated as a better scope.
