Hello,

I am considering purchase of Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 matte black scope. Therefore I am concerned about differences between 3-9x40 shotgun and 3-9x40 standard models. Both with Z-plex reticle. The scope will be mounted on rimfire. Any help highly appreciated.

Regards,

Przemek.

The only difference is the Standard 3-9x40 has a parallax setting at 100 yards where the Shotgun model has the parallax set at 50 yards.

You would want the shotgun model on a rimfire.

Jon, thank you for explaining the parallax difference.

The last thing regarding the scope which concerns me - is there any designation of the "shotgun" model present on the scope? It might indeed look weird when the "shotgun" label is present on the scope when mounted on rimfire. This thing starts to concern me. Is there "shotgun" written anywhere on the scope?
