Leupold VX-III vs Sightron Big Sky vs Zeiss Conque
I'm looking for something in the 3-10 range . . . any advice on these three options?

The Zeiss has the best glass.
They are all good.

I have a Sightron S2 in 3x9. I am using it on a Savage muzzleloader, cranking out 3,200 foot pounds.
I have had it for 4 years, it takes that pounding with no problem.
Very bright, very accurate adjustments.
Sorry have no base of reference to compare to the other 2.0 -
The Sightron, though a young company is a very good one. That would be my pick of the 3 you listed. Though I would opt for a Burris Signature in 3-12x oe a Fullfield II in 4.5-14, to stay reasonably priced. Other than that it would be a NightForce NXS.

I use a Sightron SII 4.4x14 on my 204 Ruger. For the price it is hard to beat. Can't comment on the others. 0 -
The Burris Signature Select will trump all three. 0 -
All good options. Quality order is Zeiss, Sightron, Leupold. (IMO) I use mostly Burris and Sightron scopes and am very satisfied with both. (also own nikon and leupold scopes but prefer burris and sightron) 0 -

I just bought a 4-16X44 sig select and am very happy with it.0 -
Get the scope that best suits your eye and hunting/shooting conditions and then compromise. From your choices, all meets my minimum optical clarity requirement and other features. However, eye relief is critical for my old eyes and hunting/shooting conditions and I find Leupold's eye reliefs to be very forgiving. Most scopes on average has an eye relief of 3.0" - 3.5". My VX-III has 4.7".
Try them side by side - most gun stores have the tool to mount 2 scopes for side by side comparison.
BTW, the new V3s have better optics than the VX-IIIs.
Good luck and happy safe hunting/shooting.0
