Pros:  Reticle is awesome,30mm tube rings eay to find, levels quickly due to flat turret caps, ZERO stop is easy to install!
Cons:  Scope jumps in power quickly from 12 to 24, wish it would of included thumb lever.
Would recommend:  yes

First use was at 4000' above sea level in 66 degree weather and was already picking up some heat waves. Hope it doesnt let me down in August & September when its really hot in Nevada. Also wish there were a few more power increments between 12 to 24 power. I love the reticle easy to correct quickly, easy to install zero stop, easy to level and hope the illuminated reticle works as it should. Only scope I found in same price range I would consider since this scope is so hard to find is SWFA 5-20 *50 in HD for a couple hundred bucks more. Another great reticle, I looked through both just preferred the Vortex slightly.

This is my first high power quality scope. With no previous experience I am pleased to have selected the FFP and MOA features. It's mounted on the new Savage Model 10 FCP-SR in .308. It was easy to bore sight but I have not zeroed it in while waiting for better weather!

Best scope you can buy for under 1k. Tracks perfect every time.

Pros:  I've used almost every high end brand of scope costing hundreds more than I paid for this one but it met my expectations in every way
Cons:  The only negative I can give is that Vortex products are hard to find in stock
Would recommend:  yes

The quality of the optics on this scope are phenomenal even at 24x magnification. What I really appreciate is when making elevation and windage adjustments that accurately track the increments you have made. It makes zeroing in as easy as it gets and once you've dialed it in, it stays that way.

Great scope! I'm kind of a Vortex junkie. I like their products. They produce quality optics for a price that doesn't knock you back! This is my first FFP reticle and I love it. The glass is crisp and clear. Sometimes the eye relief is a little finiky at 24 but that's probably expected. Again, great scope.

Bought it, waited about 6 months to get it but overall im happy with my purchase. Eye relief seems kinda crummy but for the price and features you cant complain.

Have to say I spent 2-3 weeks trying to decide what to put on top of my new FNH SPR A5M..... I read a lot of good review about Vortex but to give it a low cost test I bought Vortex Dimondback to put on LWRC M6. I have to say I was more than pleased at the performance and the cost. I decided to commit to the Viper PST 6.5-24x50 with FFP and could not be happier. I love the fact that the reticle is black but have the option to use the illumination (I originally thought it was illumination only). The optics are crystal clear and can not believe all the bells and whistles for the price. I haven't tried the high priced other brands and now I probably never will.

Pros:  Excellent glass, great turret clicks. Love the MOA reticle for making shots without touching a dial.
Cons:  Im not a fan of the CR2032 battery its kind of a poor battery and doesnt last.
Would recommend:  yes

Put one of these on my custom built 6.5 Grendel SPSR and its spot on. Everyone that shoots out of it using this scope loves this scope.
