[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 236860, member: 873"] Put the 2 scopes beside each other, a 6500 and a Zeiss Conquest MC. The turrest on the Zeiss are larger, easier to read than the turrets on the 6500. Don't get me wrong about the scope glass in the 6500. It is very nice. I have a friend who bought one before I did (thanks go to him). He had to show it to me right away as any good friend would do to any huntin' bud. I don't like the readings (markings) or the shorter turrets compared to the Zeiss. Hope this explains why I said the turrets suck IMHO on the 6500?. If it was available with 'nicer' turrets and a simple duplex reticule (4.5x30 only available w/mil dots last time I checked) I'd buy one in a heartbeat. But if I'm laying out $$$ I'd like to to get what I want not just what's available. I'll wait and see what happens to the turrets. [/QUOTE]
