Zeiss VM/V
I just purchased the Zeiss 2.5X10X50 VM/V. Does anyone have any experience with this scope? I bought it for a pretty good price and have always liked Zeiss products. I hope this is as good as advertised.

I've had one for 10 years. It is the best there is. The widest field of view and the best glass.

I always wind up putting it on my favorite rifle. They are worth about $1500.00. What did you pay for yours?

Well, I don't know about "the best", but you certainly have one of the best hunting scopes money can buy.
I'm partial to Schmidt and Bender, but Zeiss is top shelf.

When you get into the top performing scopes in the world, it becomes a "What's your favorite color?" type deal. Very subjective....

Congrats!! cheers

I am a total Zeiss fan, so I think you made a very good choice. By the way here in Sweden in tests Zeiss is almost always winning over all the other brands that exist.

I bought it new for $1295. I just couldn't pass it up.

My favourite all-around scope for hunting in Europe. Great compromise between size, low light performance, high magnification and wide field of view. They don't come much better.
