A Zeiss S5 5- 25x56 mm is cheaper than a Zero Comp 5- 27x56 mm. Why is the glass on the Zeiss inferror ?

What planet do you live on? Seeking information before I pull the trigger on one of those two brands.
I think you’re just asking how the two scopes compare, and why the ZCO is more popular on this site, right? Because two scopes can have equal glass but other things, like turrets or reticles, can sway the market.
Take a look at Ilya Koshkin's, (aka Dark Lord of Optics) reviews.
The glass from all the top brands like ZCO and Zeiss will be pretty similar.
Pick the one with the reticle you prefer. None of the other features will make much of a difference. Unless you need the extra 5 mils of elevation and daylight bright reticle on the Zeiss.

Exactly, the optical system is just one piece of the puzzle...

@Iron Worker looks like you thumbed up my post, quoted above.
I have never used either scope, or else I’d help you.
Now that we know, broadly, what you’re after, maybe someone who’s used both can offer some comparisons?
I currently have a 7-35x56 ATCAR and a Sightron SV111 5- 40x56 mm that I will use this weekend in Long Range Varmint Silhouette. Those German Optics scopes are tempting.
My number is 916-628-3490, we carry both brands of scopes and pretty much every alpha level scope out there. I can go over the pros funds of all of them.
