That is all some great information. I have been a fixed power guy since the late 70's and all my rifles have either Leupold 4x or 6x and i have one Zeiss Diatal C 6x32 that is my favorite of the bunch. I am at the age and point with my eyesight that I was looking for something with a little more power on the top end for doing load development.

I am a fan of the German and Austrian glass but don't have the budget for the new stuff. I was looking at a used Habicht 3x9, some Zeiss Diavari's, and a S&B 6x42. I know the S&B doesn't offer any more power then what I have but I am a sucker for good fixed power and would love to find another Diatal C 6x32.

Thanks for the information.
