[QUOTE="Oregonpharmer, post: 1058260, member: 89043"] I have the Zeiss Conquest DL 3-12x50mm, on a .338 Win Mag that is used for long range elk hunting. Good scope, bright, quick target acquisition, but a bit heavy so requires careful bedding to the rings to keep it from moving from recoil. The issue I find is I only shoot that distance maybe five times a year, just enough to keep on target and once in the field. So my go to scope for reaching out to game no larger than a Mule deer is now a Nikon M-308 4-16x42mm on a .30-06 with a heavy profile barrel. I find the Nikon to be just as quick at acquiring the target, and so reasonably priced that it is absolutely amazing what one gets for the money. Plus, the inevitable bump or drop is no longer a concern with a small dollar scope. Just my thoughts. [/QUOTE]
