Best forYou hunt open terrain at range and want an illuminated reticle with fine turret clicks

Buyers who reviewed it describe genuinely strong glass and build quality for a mid-tier long-range hunting scope, a reasonable pick if the .25 MOA external turret and illuminated reticle match how you shoot.

Overview

An external, multi-turn elevation turret calibrated in .25 MOA clicks and a Ballistic Stop feature anchor this 6-24x50 long-range hunting scope, paired with the illuminated Reticle #65 for open-terrain holdover. It's aimed at hunters and long-range shooters who want fine, repeatable adjustments.

Rated 3.6 stars, the reviews included here skew positive on glass quality and build, though the overall average reflects a wider spread of opinion not shown in this sample. Buyers highlight the ZEISS T* coating's contrast and specifically compare it favorably to a Trijicon Accupoint's tritium reticle, preferring a battery they can swap over sending an optic in for tritium replacement.

  • 90% light transmission rating
  • ZEISS T* lens coating
  • External Ballistic Stop turret, .25 MOA clicks
  • Illuminated Reticle #65 (ZMOAi-T20)

Who it's for

Works for hunters and long-range shooters who want side parallax adjustment and a reticle built for holdover at distance in open terrain. Less suited to anyone who wants a simple, no-turret hunting scope.

What buyers say

Performance notes

The Conquest V4 pulls 90 percent light transmission through ZEISS T* coated glass, with LotuTec keeping the lens clear in wet conditions. The external Ballistic Stop turret clicks in .25 MOA and locks a repeatable zero, while the ZMOAi-T20 illuminated reticle is designed for varmint and open-terrain holdover. Reviewers describe the glass as noticeably clearer than competing scopes in the same price range.
