I own several Zeiss Conquest scopes and several Leupold scopes. I only own one Leupold VX3 which is a 2.5x8 all the rest are VarXIII or older. I feel like there is something special with the coating on my VX3 scope which none of my other scopes have when it gets close to dark the VX3 just seems to see real well. I noticed it whitetail hunting right before dark. I just kind of like it.

I have to say the Conquest does seem to look brighter when I just look through them during daylight.

Eye relief has got to go with Leupold with the scopes I own. They seem to have the longer eye relief.
