Hey family,

First time posting on this discussion, i am in a bit of a pickle.
I have a SAKO 85 Classic 308.
i live in Australia with varying hunting environments from open country to close bush lands and everything in-between. i am torn between two optics. i am not after a tactical looking scope as its such a lovely classic rifle. so if someone could help me out between these two id love it.

SWAROVSKI Z6I 2.5-15X44 II P BT L 4A-I 
vs
Carl Zeiss Conquest V6 3-18x50 #6 ASV H

happy HUNTING

I honestly don't know how you could go wrong with either.  The Swarovski is a step up in price, it is top end Swarovski, the Zeiss is mid-range (but mid-range Zeiss is above top end in most scope lines).  Both are rated for much heavier impact rifles than .308... I have a Z6i 1-6 on my custom Champlin .378 Weatherby Magnum.  I have a Zeiss Victory 2.5-10 on a Voere Titan II in 30-06... I made the mistake of letting my wife shoot it... she claimed it and it is "Hers".  
If it were my choice, I would go with the Swarovski. It is a bit lighter, which many people are obsessed with, and (to my eyes) it is a bit optically cleaner than the Zeiss V6 models I have looked at...not much, but visible.  If it comes down to price, the V6 wins and I don't believe it would ever be a choice one would be unhappy with.
Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living

Both great scopes. Probably your own preference.
Was sure I had a point when I started this post...

I think that the Swaro Z6i is a solid step above the Zeiss V6.
