Rifle Scopes Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50 ?

[hunter81]

Is the zeiss 6.5-20x50 a good scope for a 338 ultra tac setup? Or is there some thing better for around the $1000 range?

Check the elevation travel. The Diavaris don't have a lot of elevation and if you're doing an ELR .338 rifle it might not have enough travel.

Near Manufacturing has a 25 moa base and a 45 moa base so I should be able to get about 1500 yards. With a 250gr at 3150 fps.

IIRC, the 6.5-20x Zeiss has about 22moa of "up"

A 25moa base would (should) maximize all available elevation on that scope. Chance you won't be able to zero at 100 if that's a concern...

Ive got on of these and I like the ziess better than my other leupolds or burris's. I want to get a 14X one also now. Not sure if its the scope you want for the 338 only because Ive never shot one.
