[QUOTE="TNRifleman, post: 4097973, member: 16556"] I have switched everything over to Vortex. The simplest reasoning is that it is the best bang for my buck. I have owned Zeiss, Leupold, Nikon, and Burris scopes and binos and for my money, the Vortex gives the better bang for the buck. Zeiss and the higher end Leupolds have great glass but are more expensive than my Vortex Diamondbacks and Vipers and the performance to money ratio is not big enough. I did a twilight test with my Diamondback HP and my Zeiss HD 5 and yes, the Zeiss was brighter a little bit longer but for a $500 difference in price the difference was minimal. I also tested my Vortex Viper Binos against my buddy's Swaro's when we were in CO. Again, the Swaro is better glass for sure but my eyes are not good enough for me to buy $2500 binos when my $499 Vipers were as clear as I needed. ANother contributing factor is the warranty and service. I had a horrible customer service experience on a pair of Zeiss COnquest HD binos earlier this year. I sold them to buy the Vipers. [/QUOTE]
