I've not seen one of these scopes. How are they?

I'm considering a ZA-5 3-15X42 as a sheep/antelope scope to double as a gopher-getter.

im considering the 4-20x50 or 3-15x50. nice looking scopes

If I was aiming at small things far away, I'd want parallax adjustment on a 15x scope.

I've bought three of the 4x20x50s in recent months.
Mounted one on a Rem 700 VSSF in 308.
It's clear, bright and tracks like it should.
Have shot all the way out to 900 yards w it and it always returns to zero and so far holds zero.

I have the 30 power and the paralax is off. Glass is good and tracks well enough but seems less robust than I would like.

I'm reversing my first impression on a ZA-3.

All seemed fine when I first received the scope, mounted it and sighted it in at 100 yards. But since then shooting at longer range targets I've noticed when a 300 yard target is crisply focused the reticle is slightly blurred, focus the reticle and the target is blurred.

At first I thought I needed to update my optical prescription, but I did not have the problem with Conquest and Leupold scopes on the same day and conditions.

So, this scoope will be removed before any hunting is done with the rifle.

I would go with the 4-20x with BRX reticle for your needs. I have one and can't complain about adjustability, focus, and quality of glass. Hard to beat for the money (unless you can still find a Zeiss 5-20 Conquest at a closeout price.)
