Take a look at as many as you can. The Burris Fullfield II is a good scope (I have 3 of them). Another good one is the Burris ShortMag. I also like the Nikon Prostaff. A great scope for the money. And I like the circles in the Nikon ballistic reticle over the dots on the Burris. Redfield is now owned by Leupold and their scopes go through the same impact testing as the Leupolds.

So yet another question after sifting through review after review on these rifle scopes.

Found a "Sightron 6x42 SII Big Sky Riflescope" for $179, and every where else it is a $400-500 scope. Would this be comparable to the Zeiss Conquest?

Only concern I have with this is the fact that it is a 6 power scope. Would this be too much magnification for you guys when out hunting deer and elk?

The Sightron Big Sky is as good if not better than the conquest. never herd of the scope being that cheap, Now where do i find that scope again. LOL

I was just gonna say, look at Sightrons. They are amazing. I own Leopolds and Sightrons...and honestly, there is not any difference to me (other then the cost). Heck I've got an S1 3x9x40 on one of my ML's...I love that scope. Crystal clear, great eye relief, and rock solid through alot of heavy hitting ML loads. Best part is they are under $150 regularly....and on sale with a killer price right now. The Big Sky is that much better. You will love them! Give a report once you get it!

Additionally, the Big Sky scopes have a hydrophobic lens coating that is an added bonus...IMO.
