I noticed a Zeiss 3-12X56 for sale and was wondering how they compare in magnification to other brands of scope. For example I saw where someone compared a Nightforce with a Bushnell. When the Nightforce was on 12X the Bushnell needed to be on 15X or 16X to see the same thing.

Anyone know about this?

, the 3-12x56 Victory/Diavari is a darn fine general purpose hunting optic.
I have been running one for years and have yet to find it's equal in the glass department in any/all lighting conditions.

Zeiss also makes a 3-12x56 Conquest with which I have no experience.
 
Re: Zeiss 3-12X56

I agree with Rhutch, this is an amazing hunting scope. I have one as well, and when it comes to low light conditions, there is no other scope out there that can compare. As far as the long range shooting side of it, I prefer my NF NXS, but this scope will still work with that and be as clear and crisp as the NF. The NF is just more user friendly, and takes extreme abuse and stays dead on everytime.
