Zeiss Conquest V4 riflescope

Carl Zeiss Optics has just added two brand new models into its classic product line of Conquest V4 riflescopes with a new 3-12x44mm scope with a Zeiss Z-Plex reticle and a 3-12x56mm illuminated Plex center-dot reticle. All members of the Zeiss Conquest V4 product family are built around optics with a 4X zoom ratio and a 30mm diameter maintube. In addition these scopes include ¼-MOA click values for adjusting their windage or elevation and use a second-focal-plane reticles.

Zeiss Conquest V4 3-12x44 mm Z-Plex 

This new model was designed to reflect on the quintessential field scope design by being compact and lightweight while also being useful across a range of scenarios on varying types of terrain including timbers, open fields or grasslands. This model can be had with standard capped turrets, but Zeiss is now offering its customers a variant with external elevation turrets with a ballistic stop and more visible engravings which are more akin to the easy-dialing turrets found on tactical or PRS style riflescopes.  

Zeiss Conquest V4 3-12x56 mm Illuminated Plex

The new Zeiss Conquest V4 3-12x56mm is similar to the 3-12x44mm Conquest V4 model, but this variant is optimized for lower-light conditions by the addition of a larger 56mm diameter objective lens which gathers light more easily. In addition, this riflescope has an illuminated center-dot reticle that helps contrast against foliage and other backgrounds while hunting with less ambient light.

All Zeiss V4 Conquest riflescope models are backed by Zeiss’ limited lifetime transferable warranty and include a five year, no-fault policy. To learn more about the Zeiss Conquest V4 family, please visit zeiss.com.
