Leopold vs Vortex vs zeiss. 10x or 12x

[geenhead93]

I am having a lot of trouble deciding whether I should purchase a Vortex viper a Leupold vx-3 or a Zeiss conquest. I am also struggling to decide between 10x or 12x I will be putting it on my Remington model 700 in 243. It will be used for predators, deer, and hogs. The terrain I hunt varies a lot.
I am mainly asking which of the above has the easiest to use resetable turrets and the best optics.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have researched this a lot recently for a custom built on a Rem 700. It's a .243 also. Depending on your budget, I would get the Leupold VX-6 3-18x44. I had a different VX-3 with the twilight lens and loved it. I'll pm you a place that is selling them for $899 right now. Just my two cents.

Thanks for the replies. But just curious why 10x and not 12x?

My vortex viper has reasonable glass, certainly OK for the price point and all the features, but it is definitely not a vx3 or a Zeiss.
