Yes HD5 is shorter than old scopes but fron Lens diameter is larger, i use Zeiss medium rings and front lens tube almost touch the barrel. And also HD5 is heavier than the 6.5-20.. I will test it this week and will let you know. but hope you are right and it was just an oddity of the day...

The new scope is longer and front lens tube diamater is larger. I didnt test it on the field yet but i was looking outside from my balcony today and time was around noon and was pretty sunny, about 100 meters there were a guy wear all white shirt, i used 25x magnification... And had crazy purple...

I got the RZ800 just now... I will add some pics asap but i just noticed this is hunting turret, i dont think i will be happy with it after Target turret. I will contact to Zeiss monday, if any modification possible.

Yes i used the calculator and it doesnt fit the 7 mag. OR sometimes it fits but the calculator gives you very low optimum magnification power, like 11 or 12. But if you use rapid z 600 or 800, you get the best results...

I got the scope monday. looks really fancy and more modern than Conquest. But i didnt like the Rapid-z 1000 and returned it for RZ800, so i will get the new one Friday.

I just bought the 5-25 with Rapid Z 1000 for my remington 700. I currently use Conquest 6.5-20 with this rifle. So when i will receive the new scope in a couple of days, i will compare it for you.

Thanks a lot for help !
