Superior Optics

Diamondback 3.5-10x50 Riflescope lenses are fully multi-coated with anti-reflection coatings for maximum light transmission and minimum glare on all air-to-glass surfaces. The lens provides higher color contrast, sharper images, and superior light transmission. The glass-etched reticle was precision etched in the second focal plane for an image that always maintains the same ideally-sized appearance. It designed to provide precise aiming even at the longest range and lowest light conditions.

Dead-Hold BDC Reticle

The Diamondback's Dead-Hold BDC aiming reticle is designed to help eliminate guesswork on holdover and windage corrections. This type of reticle is good for hunting or other types of shooting where you’ll be aiming at targets across very long distances. The Dead-Hold reticle can be used effectively with high powered rifles, rimfire rifles, black powder rifles and slug shotguns. The BDC Reticle is constructed in the second focal plane and maximizes long-distance shooting and ranging abilities for your Diamondback Riflescope. The reticle was hashmarked using MOA based subtension lines as a reference for bullet-drop as well as bullet drift in windy conditions; the ultra-precision laser etching on the glass reticle is kept to the tightest tolerances possible. The BDC reticle has a max windage adjustment level of 65 MOA and a max elevation adjustment level of 65 MOA.

Durable Build

Constructed out of aircraft-grade aluminum, this Vortex Optics Riflescope has a tube size diameter of 1 inch in a single-piece tube designed to maximize alignment for improved accuracy and optical performance. A tough hard-coat anodized exterior combines with ArmorTek exterior coating to help protect your scope protects against bumps, bruises, scratches, oil, and dirt. O-ring seals and Argon gas purging create a waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof body.

Internal Mechanisms

Capped turrets give you extreme control for fast and accurate elevation and wind adjustments thanks in-part to the integrated locking mechanism that prevents accidental adjustments. The Precision-Glide Erector System ensures components of the zoom lens mechanism glide smoothly and cleanly through the entire magnification range.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Vortex Awesome company one of the only companies I trust to use for hunting, sports and shooting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bison down Originally purchased for an 18" .223 wylde my son built. Ended up mounting on a .308 because my son drew a bison tag and that was the biggest round he could shoot comfortably with precision. Worked great on both the .223 wyled and .308 but will stay on the .308 now because it's a proven killer. Works great in interior Alaska in all seasons. We were in and out of cabins, tents, and the truck multiple times from hot to -20F and everything inbetween and had no issues whatsoever. Great Quality.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great scope for the price! This is on my .308 and it landed my son his first deer. For the amount of money I paid for this scope, it more than does the job.
