The Conquests are fine scopes indeed. I like the Rapid Z 600, and have shot a friend's quite a bit. I prefer the Conquests to Leupy VX3 scopes but, actually, either will get the job done.

I like Ziess better than low-to-mid level Leupys.


If you can afford more than that, they all make "good ones" !!!

Just depends how much you want to spend to accomplish the "job".

I have a vari x3 3.5x 10x50 on my 7 mag, upon sighting in I shot a .38" group.
The 3x9x50 Zeiss Rapid Z 600 is waiting to be mounted!

Zeiss Conquest scopes, in my opinion, is one of the better values out there right now. Have one. Like it a lot. Leupold Vari-X III - very good choice also. Don't overlook the Bushnell Elite 6500. I consider the Elite 4200 a very good value. If the Elite 6500 is a better scope, it's worth a look se.
