Optics Diamondback Second Focal Plane, 1-inch Tube Riflescopes - Multiple Reticle Options, Shockproof, Waterproof, Fogproof - Unlimited, Unconditional Warranty

This is amazing tech. No blind spots, crystal clear optics, shock resistant, and amazing value!! Beats my Nikon P-308 hands down.

I like this scope (1.75-5X32mm) so much I've bought three so far. I've mounted them on a 12 gauge slug gun, as well as .308 and 6.5 Grendel bolt actions. This scope is a great balance of size, magnification, and clarity. If you are looking for an affordable, compact scope for woods hunting or a compact setup, you will have to look hard to find a better option. The glass is clear and the reticle is well sized, not too thin or overly thick. The hold off hash marks are maybe a bit close together but that is a small issue with how I use theses scopes. The adjustments are positive and repeatable and the scope holds zero for the use I've given them so far ( less than 50 rounds). I would give this scope serious consideration for any hunting gun expected to be used in woods or brush country.

the 1.75 magnification allows you to really see a target quickly as the entire eye piece seems to open up. perfect for 3 gun and close shooting. then turn it up to 5 and now you can shoot further. I previously was using a 4 x 9 and once i saw how much better this scope was at quickly acquiring a target i had to have it.

Warranty - What Warranty??? Forget about a warranty - Mine continually failed and all I got from Vortex was excuses and extra shipping costs. I tested the first 1.5-5 Diamonadback scope which I got for Christmas - and stupidly let slip past the return date - and another I purchased, but was able to return. I tested them extensively - 400 rounds or better trying to get one to hold zero - forget about it! I was using this scope on a .35 rem 1976 Marlin - A rifle I know very well! I was using my own hand loads and shooting off of two sand bags on a bench at a range. Over and over after 40 rounds or so (not shot all at the same time at a high rate - - not a hot barrel issue) phlewy off zero. So I tested the rifle against itself with iron sights - this vintage marlin shoots 1.5 MOA from a cold barrel - AND I know it! so I tested the rifle with an old 3-9 Nikon I had kicking about - shot fine held zero. Same rifle, same rings, same range, same ammo, same shooter, but consistently different results. TheVortex kept failing and an old kicked about Nikon shot true. Same with the old factory iron sights - shot true. Tried to get my money back from vortex - just more shipping cost - "your scopes slipping blah, blah, blah". Nonsense! I Always put witness marks on a scope when I mount it so I know when if slips or shifts. So I got burned by Vortex. I accepted this and moved on. I purchased a 2-7 Nikon Prostaff. Guess what! - Same rifle, same rings, same range, same ammo, same shooter, but consistently different results - The Prostaff works fine!. It was less money and works great! What really galls me is that for the money I paid for the Vortex garbage scope and the nice Nikon, I could have bought a great Leupold! So as a former Vortex fan (I own three Vipers and this garbage Diamondback) I'm here to tell you - One, the warranty is bunk and Two this scope is junk

I bought this for my Ruger SR556 and mounted it on some weaver rings. I'm happy happy with the scope because it's light weight, which helps because my SR556E is pretty heavy already. I like the BDC, the lifetime warranty, the 2-3 inch eye relief, the 1/4 MOA adjustments, the sturdy turret caps, and most of all the vision quality is very clear. So for about 200 bucks, I fell like it's a great product.

Well, this looked like a used product. The user manual came with smudges and fingerprints. I regret purchasing this scope from a dealer. I have not installed the product yet. I am disappointed that although the dials have metal caps they have to be removed to adjust the scope in use as well as for boresighting. This will probably be the first thing to get lost. I did not see any obvious scratches on the product although the adjustments were very stiff initially. I will install it and see how it works, when I have time. I could find no serial numbers on this product.

Perfect power for PA Deer hunting in tight woods. Clear, good controls, and great eye relief.

Typical Vortex quality for entry level pricing. Bought this to convert my AR to a varmint gun. Zero’d it at 100yards After only 12 rounds.
