I have the Zeiss 5x25x50mm HD5 and the parallex Dial felt like it was slipping. Had to adjust it to infinity image to focus at 100yds ? Callede Zeiss up they said send it ! Few days later when I was packaging the scope ,the Parallex dial seemed ok ? Sp I still sent it back saying I di8dn't want this to fail on the dream hunt . I wonder what's wrong ?

I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

From my experiences with them that would be very quick.

Yet the optic quality is still worth it to me to wait the few times I"ve needed service.

L turns theirs around quickly, but you still have L quality.

Why does it take so long ? What are the odds of them replacing it with a new scope ?

My very first tractor. A-C HD5AG. Had a 6 bottom plow and 24' set of rodweeders for it. Open cab, although my dad found an old wood cab for it for spring and fall work.

I guarantee that Zeiss has at least 10x's more scopes returned for failure than Nightforce does!! There is a reason why the military does not use Zeiss Conquest scopes for our soldiers......

Zeiss sells 200x the amount also betting. Im sure there are a few pole-smokers on SH buying 30oz Nightforces to kill stuff at 85 yds though.
