Yep, the one that is now sitting my 300wm has target turrets and side focus, several others I have on different rifles have it as well.
Re: Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50
Hmmm not sure tempted to put a zeiss on the 204, put the vortex viper hs on the 223 and a meopro 6-18x50 on the 6-284.......decisions decisions.....

Re: Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50
G'day Mick,
I recently purchased the Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50 from Camerland NY for about $750 landed on my door step.
It is a brilliant scope on my .204, great at night with plenty of magnification. It also has side focus.
Grab one, it's definately worth it!
Regards,
CZ550

Re: Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50
I did in the end get from CameralandNY
AU$997 to my door for a Conquest HD5 5-25x50.
Luckily for me, Erica is a very understanding woman
(so she says )
Best price I could get in Australia was $1500 plus post.

Good pick up, $500 saving it is certainly worth while going off shore.

Happy to stand corrected there, the ones I was looking at did not - so assumed they all didn't.bigfellascott wrote:The Conquest has side focus too.mick_762 wrote:The Conquest HD5 has side focus yes.

I went and checked out camera land by but they adamantly stated they do not ship scopes outside the U.S?
How did you guys get around that?
Thanks
Dave

Re: Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50
As long as they are not described as tactical or military type scopes its ok, plus they will not export some brands leupold etc

Simple, I emailed them and asked about the specific scope I wanted.

Re: Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50

I am in need of another scope for the 22PPC when its finished and am thinking of grabbing one quick before our dollar is only worth 50cUS,

Mark,
As I said to you on the phone, it is clear, it looks nice - and I like the Z800 reticle.
Its a Zeiss . . .
I don't have it on a rifle as I want to breach its virginity with the .308 Norma, so cant comment on internal adjustment etc.
But I did see a bloke walking his dog on the hill about 700 yards away during a drizzely shitty day - so I am full of hope that it will be a goodun.
