I'm running two obsolete Conquests on my .338 WM and .375 H&H. The former wears the 2.5x8 and the latter the 1.8x5.5. These scopes replaced the Leupold 2x7 and the B&L 1.5x6 respectively.

In addition to the above poster's recommendations, I would seriously look at the Weaver Grand Slam, which is currently on sale at Natchez.

I was hoarding when hoarding wasn't cool.
