Good, but note quite great - Vortex Diamondback 2-7x35 Matte Riflescopes

really liked this scope. wanted it to work for me, but it just was not to be...

purchased to ride atop my TC Bonecollector...eye relief was MUCH too short for 100 gr loads. {got smacked a couple times before I finally admitted defeat}

limited positioning options due to mounting screws {the rifle's fault}...combined with short eye-relief {the scopes fault}...made this a no-go for me.

POSITIVES: quality of construction is fantastic. elevation/windage is set up great, easy to read/adjust/center.

was very pleased with glass/image quality, although it does get a little "fish-eyed" around the edges on 2X {the Redfield I replaced it with does not}.

loved the reticle, but sadly never got to put it just behind the shoulder of a nice buck...

NEGATIVES: eye-relief is too short...much shorter than many of this scope's competitors.

previously mentioned distortion on low power.

will see how the replacement works out: Redfield Revolution 2-7 w/accurange reticle.
Pros: quality, fit/finish, simplicity
Cons: short eye-relief!!! also, view gets a little fish-eyed on lowest magnification.
