I am a big fan of the 3 to 9 x 40 meopro. I first used them in the Zeiss conquest line but now have meopta and Cabela’s branded versions. I really like the eye relief and z Plex reticle on these, and the thick to thin appears to be approximately 4 MOA from center at the highest power setting. This gets me out to 400 yards, which is further then I will shoot unless conditions are ideal. I have never felt hindered all the way to the end of legal shooting hours with these scopes.

I haven't owned a Swaro, but have used a few different Meopta products. I like them a lot and consider them replacements for the Zeiss Conquest line of scopes. To my eyes they give better color and are brighter at dusk than VX3 Leupolds. I don't do any dialing with them, they are set and forget type for me and have served me well. Everyone sees things a little differently though scopes and if you can get over their heft weight I believe they could serve you well.

I have owned a Zeiss Conquest 3-9 but I cant remember it being any better optically than My Leupold VX3's....Hb I agree. I've owned the Meopta and Conquest 3-9 and I believe the VX-3 edges them both out optically. And the VX-3 is edged out by the Swaro 3-9, in my opinion. My experience has been just the opposite to this - I have a 3.5-10 VX-3i and a Conquest 3-9, and to my eye, the Conquest wins in clarity, brightness, and low light performance.

Hi, I have meopta and Zeiss scopes. I would rate the meopta as well as zeiss and I do believe there is some connection betweeen the 2. Either zeiss make some lenses for meopta of vice versa.
Never had problems with loss of zero, good light transmission. I have S&B pm scopes but never a swaro so cant compare that. Personally I would definitely go meopta
