Extreme quality & value - Vortex Diamondback HP 3-12x42mm Rifle Scope

I got a new rifle (Browning X-Bolt) and wanted quality glass on it. I compared this scope side by side with a Leopold VX-6 of the exact same magnification and objective lens size. The optic quality was virtually identical. YES, I looked through BOTH. Both have a "No Questions Asked" Lifetime warranty. The Leopold had a illuminated reticle, this model Vortex does not. That was the ONLY difference and the Vortex is $1000.00 less than the VX-6. I have always followed the "Price of the Glass should Equal the Price of the Gun" "Rule". With Vortex, You can get the quality, without breaking the bank. This is my 2nd Vortex Scope and I have been impressed with both. This scope is crystal clear, edge to edge. The focus ring is firm yet smooth, so once it's set, it stays put. Excellent scope, you will not be disappointed.
