[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1133357, member: 55230"] "To my old eyes, the older conquest is every bit as good of glass as the newer HD5" Chances are they're the same glass. Its a marketing ploy by zeiss. All they did was change the model name, increase the price, then introduce a budget scope for customers to be familiar w/ their name to create loyalty. Nikon is doing the same thing. Leupold has done it but they have been far less devious w/ their pricing. From my standpoint I think all these new models w/ their own little intricate amenities have really congested the middle market. Prostaff 3,5,7.. monarch x,3,5,7.. vx-I, II, III, 2,3,6... conquest hd5, terra. At this point a person could really benefit from a comprehensive comparison of all these scopes and what separates them from the previous models. [/QUOTE]
