Does this scope come with mounts? How high to clear 50mm and remain low?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 16, 2025

The Diamondback Tactical 6-24x50mm Rifle Scope does not include a scope mount or rings. Email us at Techsales@opticsplanet.com and let us know what rifle you intend to mount this scope to, that way we can more accurately recommend a set of rings, or a mount that will work best for your set up.

Q
Nathan Zamora, member, from WA, United States, asked on May 13, 2025

I want to pair this with the vortex precision matched rings and place it on a Ruger American rifle, what ring height should I get?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on May 16, 2025

Because the Ruger American Rifle includes a picatinny base from the factory, a set of High height 30mm picatinny scope rings will work and allow for clearance of the barrel. The high height Vortex Tactical 30mm Rifle Scope Rings can be found linked below:

Q
buck, member, from TX, United States, asked on April 19, 2025

I seen in the comments that there was one that had an issue with the focus past 12x, is there still the vortex warranty?

A
Answered by Clyde, member, from CA, United States, on April 23, 2025

Yes, The warranty is still valid as they only require the actual item apoun replacement, the VIP lifetime gaurntee is valid for this product. Be sure to adjust the paralax on the left side of your scope to the proper distance or else the image WILL be distorted. This is with any FFP scope. The distance on target needs to match the distance given on paralax
