I’ve got one I’ve been well pleased with. Mounted on a custom 243. Dialed a good bit from 100 to 400 and back and forth (My range only goes to 400) and I gained confidence in it quickly

Any more user reports on the new Conquest V4 scopes?

And, what is "tunneling"? Is that a narrowed field of view? Edges of the image out of focus? Something else?

Tunneling is a narrow field of view. Kinda like looking through a tunnel. Mine is not yet mounted but glass is better than my razor hd lh or swaro av.

Anyone have a longer term review on these? Zeiss is offering a good deal on an upgrade to replace a POS Terra.

I have two of them. Mine are actually the 4-16x50 model. So far everything seems to work great. Clear optics and seem to track just fine. I have only sighted in at 100 yards and dialed out to about 275 yards and back a few times,but it works well. I have also dialed the scope up 20 moa and back to test RTZ.

This worked mine as well although I didn't shoot at anything 800 yards away which is 20 moa in my set up. I do plan to do that as soon as we get the corn picked and I can see that far again.

I have had one for a year and a half. Practice with it out to 700 yards. Can shoot off my deck so every now and then the local “rocks” get a workout so it gets clicked a bit.
Shot a Wyoming antelope couple of weeks ago at 363 yards and it hit right where I held.

Hopefully find a deer this week.

ITS ON A NULA ..264.

My only complaint is it’s pretty touchy as to eye position on 16X. I had it in 10 when I shot the antelope.

Overall good scope

The Zeiss V4 has been out there for awhile....any reviews on them now?


I don't always venture out into the sub-freezing darkness, but when I do, it is deer hunting season, and I carry a Remington. Stay hungry my friends.

Mine has become my load development scope as i don’t need 16x or parallax adjustments for the hunting i do. My experience with it on several rifles from the bench has been positive - and tracking has been quite good - consistent and precise.

I also hunted it last fall on my primary deer rifle. Other than not using the upper end of the power range and the parallax adjustment (as i never needed them), it worked well.

I’ve had the 6-24x50 V4 for about a year now. I loaned it to my SIL it’s First month to go on a public land Colorado elk hunt in rough terrain on a 300 Weatherby Vanguard. He dragged it up & down canyons rode in a UTV and made a very nice one shot kill of a good sized cow elk. Held up to recoil & rough treatment- once I looked through it I told him it was only a loan for the Elk hunt on his new rifle. The first night I had it was looking at the craters on the moon - very impressive glass.

It’s permanent home is on a Bergara chassis 6.5 Creedmoor I got to mess around & shoot some PRS matches. So far with Various factory & unproven reloads I’m dialing out to over 1100 yards & making reasonably consistent hits at that range using just the Zeiss phone app. Under 800 it is boringly consistent Dialing ranges with easy hits on 10”x24” metal targets, wind dependent of course. I’m still learning the Christmas tree reticle but like it so far.

My cousin has the V6 on another Bergara his set- up is as good or better than mine but the optical differences are minimal at best. He would buy the V4 doing it again but much prefers everything about the V6 to the Nightforce he had on the rifle before.
