Well deserved 5 stars. - Vortex Diamondback 3.5-10x50mm Rifle Scope, 1in Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

I have had this Vortex scope mounted on a Remington 700 LA in .30-06. I used the DNZ Game Reaper mount also purchased from Optics Planet to create a rock solid platform. Anything stronger would require welding IMHO.

I feel this is the Best Hunting scope for the money. As a matter of my opinion you could easily spend double and gain no benefits. The Vortex Diamondback is very light with ample eye relief and the clarity of the optics is amazing. It is simple, I do not feel like I have to carry a manual with me to operate it. The scope has a clear, bright picture; perfect for dusk or dawn hunting. The Diamondback has also taken a beating from the light weight rifle chambered in .30-06, no loss of zero or loose parts.

A quality rifle scope, for this little money and a lifetime warranty? What is not to love?
Pros: Clear, Light, Simple, Rugged and Price/Value
Cons: Didn't get my free hat.(Like I need another damn hat anyway)
