Ziess ??? What is the dif between C, Z, Etc.
« on: November 29, 2004, 07:43:27 AM »
I am looking into buying a Ziess Diavari C. Does anyone know how these stack up to the other 30mm Ziess scopes.? It is a 2.5-6X42 I think? They want $700.00 for it new. Thanks!

I was just looking at this scope as it is the only one listed by Zeiss for a shotgun, but I think its insanely costly for a $200 H&R Ultra 12 guage!

I priced it around $1200...where did you get this scope for even as cheap as you did?!

I can't seem to find a shotgun scope to settle on.  I want something with a decent objective for low light conditions...the 20mm jobbies just aren't grabbing me.  But I can't seem to justify throwing a $1200 scope on a shotgun either...
