I think Conquest.
Last month in the CAR my cousin/partner broke the reticle of his Zeiss Conquest 1.5-6*42 on his 416Rigby CZ550. The left thread was ruptured and is dangling. It didnt keep him from hunting on with this scope. The guaranty will work and he'll have another new one.
But the thread broke after less than 80 shots with the 416.

I am mostly using Swaro, mainly on my 375HH, without any problems. The EAW mounts is helping a lot, allowing to switch scopes in a couple of seconds with full accuracy kept.
The other 375 (dumoulin) is rigged with EAW and Schmitt and Bender 1.5-6*42.
The 460 Weath is working fine with a Zeiss and claw mounts

Nothing wrong with Burris or Leupold but not the rage here in France.
