Dear friends:

This is the first time I´m  entering in this forum. I live in Argentina  and after reading  all your opinions I´purchase two riflescopes, the first a Bushnell Elite 4200 6x24x50 and the other a Zeiss Conquest 4,5x14x50, both wonderful articles. Now I´m deciding to purchase other riflescope,  for my bolt action rifle CZ American 30.06 caliber and I got some offerings of Nickel riflescopes. ¿What´s your opinion about this riflescope?. Thank you very much. Happy new year.

In the acknowledge of this high level forum I have a question ¿Don´t you know Nickel riflescopes?. Recently I purchased two riflescopes, the first a Bushnell Elite 4200 6x24x50 with mil dot reticle for a CZ Varmint 452 2EZKM  .17 HMR. and the other a Zeiss Conquest 4,5x14x50 Z Plex reticle for a CZ Varmint .243. I have known that these articles are very estimated in USA. Your response about Nickel will help me to decide my next acquisition. Gratefully I will answer any question about my country Argentina.

Thnk you very much.

I posted a question about them some time ago, and the reviews were mostly negative. I have only seen a few and they were old and had not been taken very good care of.
 Technika has had some experience with them.

Thank you very much for your responses and. of course, I accept your apologizes. I insist with Zeiss Victory, What´s your opinion about this riflescope?. If not Nickel, it´s possible that I purchase a Zeiss Victory  3x12x50 4 reticle iluminated point, for hunting red deer and jabalí (if you don´t know this, it´s a wild pig about 140 kilos) for a bolt action rifle CZ FS 30.06 caliber.

Regards.

The zeiss victory is a top of the line scope and probably among the best optics available for any price. Do you hunt during the day or at night also?

Dear Focus and OT forum:

My idea is to wear Zeiss Conquest 4,5x14x50 Z Plez reticle, in day hunting, for varmint or for indian antelope or axis or dama deers, and Nickel or Zeiss Victory for the night. I think this will be quite good.

Sounds like a pretty good plan, not much I can hunt here at night but varmints but that victory should be pretty good for the real low light conditions, if you night hunt. Good hunting
