Nope... I didn't I bought on the Leupold reputation... If I haven't forgot one... I think this will be my ninth Leupold. I still have everyone I ever bought.. I tried a couple Nikon Omega's last year.. I wish I wouldn't have now. They are not a bad scope at all. But 5 inch's of relief is really to much for me. They look really cool. But when you get settled in there is just to much perrifial vision in that 5 inches for me.... And maybe some day...another rifle and I might even try that Zeiss, But then that's another post....

;DPlus maybe the extra 1 power of magnification was a little help on the deciding factor...Drop

Supposedly the Conquest lenses are made by Meopta and the Victory series are the real 100% Zeiss lenses.

That makes me feel better, Because when I bought new Bino's a couple years back I looked at and put right down the Meopta version.... Bought the Swarovski's... Still love them. Drop
