[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1244533, member: 12995"] I've had Zeiss Conquests for many years, as well... GREAT scopes for the money! Their glass is top-notch. I'd put the Vortex HS-T just under them in glass quality, but ahead of them in turret design & travel adjustment, and the fact that they have a 30mm tube instead of a 1" (all the Conquests, but the 3-12x56, which i have one of, as well). My 6.5-20x50 Conquest with target turrets is nice, but I wish it had a 30mm tube with more adjustment. Which is why it sits on my .25-06 AI since it shoots really fast & flat, and doesn't require much travel to reach out to distance. I've heard others say they had the same issue as your HS-T, but mine are clear... So is my Viper HS 6-24x50. Granted, I will say this, none of them are going to be super-clear above 16x-18x at 100 yards (when shooting for really tight groups like I do when I'm proofing loads). But farther targets it does clear up. [/QUOTE]
