AverageJoe Report post Posted January 26, 2016 I have had all models and have an unbiased opinion. Compared side by side the zeiss conquest hd and older swaro 15x56 there was no difference in optics. The 12x50 swaros were definitely better, although i still sold those and went back to 15's. The only thing i found was as stated above. The Zeiss were a little harder to focus. That being said it is not worth the difference to get swaros unless money just isnt a big deal to you. You wont go wrong with either 15x56 model. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dustin25 Report post Posted January 26, 2016 I'm looking at a new pair of conquest hds in 15x, they're asking $750. Anybody know if that sounds like a good deal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe Report post Posted January 26, 2016 750 is a great deal for 15x56 conquest hds. Used they are bringing around 1100 on average. Even used kaibabs go for $800-$900 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe Report post Posted January 26, 2016 And to compare used swaro 15's go anywhere from 1300-1500 depending on model. I found mine for $1000. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjl2010 Report post Posted January 26, 2016 Optics 4 rent sells used swaro 15s. They are the HD model. They come in dang near perfect condition and have everything with them that come with a new purchase. I believe they are a 1850 but don't quote me. Todd is a great guy to deal with.

dse Report post Posted January 27, 2016 I bought my swaros from flagstaff sportsman's. They let me take both pair outside on a tripod to compare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
