Here's a question for you scope experts. I have an opportunity to get the Zeiss scope noted in the subject line for a really good price. I currently have 2 Leupolds and no real experience with any other scopes. I've heard nothing but good things about Zeiss scopes.
I'm a bit concerned about the size and weight of this scope. Based on their website spec sheet, it weighs 21.5 oz. I often hunt a mile or more deep and any weight adds up. Also, I think I've seen comments in a TNDeer thread about a heavy scope affecting how the rifle handles/shoots. I plan to put this scope on a Bergara 6.5 CM.
Any thoughts or opinions? Thanks in advance for input.
