Howdy Gents ;)

Im looking to get a simple 3-10 ish by 50mm ish scope with an illuminated reticle for low light hunting. Im quite familiar with the conquest line and absolutely love the amazing glass on them. Ive noticed however that the duralyts have kind of a weird haze closer to the outside when looking through them.  How do the Khales entry level scopes stack up with the Zeiss entry level scopes? Are they worth that extra few hundred bucks?

Thanks guys

No contest
Kahles uses the same glass and coatings across the line

I would recommend Kahles between this two options.

  I have not looked at the Kahles so can not comment on them. I do have a Duralyt though. When I first got it I thought it had the "haze" as you mentioned. Once I got it mounted and adjusted the eyepiece to my eye it vanished. It is a really nice scope, I am sure either way your getting a quality piece.

I had a Duralyt and also had an older "C" series Kahles. I prefer the Kahles.
