I picked up a new Sako 75 (.30-06) yesterday and need to buy a scope for it.
I was comparing the 3-9 Zeiss Conquest w/ the 2.5-8 Leupold VX-III and preferred the image quality of Leupold a bit better (e.g. brighter whites). Then I compared the 2.5-8 to the 3.5-10 VX-III and decided I liked the size of the 3.5-10 better (the 2.5-8 has a shorter tube). Unfortunately the store didn't have the size rings I needed, so they are going to order them for me.
Since I didn't buy the scope yet, I thought I'd ask the folks on this forum their thoughts on my scope selection and if they have any other recommendations besides the Leupold VX-III.
