Is there any scopes that would transmit the light as my Zeiss victory 10x42’s? I haven’t been able to find one yet in the 1-1.5k range. What’s ylls opinions?

Probable not. My experience is that binos are nearly always brighter than scopes, even good scopes with big objectives. I attribute it to more lens in scopes but I don’t know if that’s the reason.

I haven’t tried the Zeiss victory series scopes but have had a chance to look through them, plus the reviews on products on here, I don’t think there is one made.

Part of the difference may be that with binoculars your eye is close to the lens and almost sealed by the eye cup. With a scope you have 3" or so of space between eye and lens. I noticed when messing with a scout rifle that the distance between eye and scope made a big difference in the ability to see at last light. JMO

That is a good point joe.
