[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 474209, member: 319"] The Conquests are very nice scopes for the money, there's no doubt about that, but you may get some argument on the above. For example the 45 MOA of elevation travel on the 6.5-20 simply isn't enough for many here. If you want to dial elevation and hold wind, they don't have the best reticles for that. If you get a mildot you're stuck with MOA clicks, etc. Not to disparage them, I'm just trying to bring in a little reality. Unless one is very easy to please or has simply never used anything better, any scope in this price range is going to be compromised in some way. Whether it's elevation travel, glass quality, matching clicks, reticle selection, turret style, focal plane choice, etc, the user who only wants to spend this much is going to have to choose what is most important to him and accept compromises in other areas. I don't think one can be crowned "best" when those choices will be different for different people. [/QUOTE]
