Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope (VMR-1 MOA Reticle)

Vortex Optics riflescopes boast extreme durability, high mechanical precision, and superior high-definition optics. The Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope was carefully crafted and meticulously designed to make this rifle scope the ideal optical solution for long range tactical applications. The Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope (VMR-1 MOA Reticle) brings you exceptional image quality thanks to the XD (extra-low dispersion) optical glass. The 40mm objective lens features a VMR-1 reticle that offers shooters highly functional, intuitive, and detailed hold points, yet remains uncluttered for optimal viewing. The Vortex Diamondback Tactical Riflescope comes with Vortex Optics' VIP Warranty.

Superior Optics

Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope lenses are fully multi-coated with XR Plus anti-reflection coatings for maximum light transmission and minimum glare on all air-to-glass surfaces. The XD glass 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.

VMR-1 MOA Reticle

The VMR-1 MOA Reticle is constructed in the second focal plane and maximizes long-distance shooting and ranging abilities for your Diamondback Tactical Riflescope. The reticle was hash-marked using MOA based subtension lines for ranging, holdover, and windage corrections; the ultra-precision laser etching on the glass reticle is kept to the tightest tolerances possible. It features an adjustment graduation level of just 1/4 MOA. The Vortex’s crosshair was carefully designed for optimum balance between precision aiming and light visibility. The VMR-1 has a max windage adjustment level of 70 MOA and a max elevation adjustment level of 70 MOA.

Durable Build

Constructed out of aircraft-grade aluminum, this Vortex Optics Riflescope has a tube size diameter of 1" 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

Exposed tactical 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.

Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope (VMR-1 MOA Reticle)

Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40 Riflescope (VMR-1 MOA Reticle) SKU: DBK-10025

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quite Impressive I put the Diamondback Tactical on my CVA Accura. The scope works perfectly and can take the shock of the recoil of the gun.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Put on 450 Bushmaster AR Platform. Quick and easy install and zero. Great clarity and quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Scope This scope is perfect for learning precision shooting. I put it on a precision .22 and it is exactly what I needed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great scope for the price I mounted this scope on my 6.8 SPC AR rifle to use as a wild hog hunter. This this was perfect for that setup. Zeroed at 100 yds and shots a nice tight group at 250 yds. I would like to get out to a further range see what it can do. Zero has held well over several outings with some rough handling on my part.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredible build quality This is an incomplete review, as I have not done any shooting with my new scope. However, right out of the box the build quality is unbelievable. This thing is built like a bank vault. The turrets all have a scalloped texture that is very tactile and would lend itself well to adjusting with gloves on. The locking feature on the scope is perfect and easy to feel. Additionally, the turrets all have very positive adjustments that allow you to know how much youre putting into a given adjustment. The scope zooms smoothly and the reticle is perfect for my uses. The illumination feature is also awesome. Very subtle if you want it to be, but bright enough to serve in very bright conditions on its lowest zoom. As far as the clarity goes, this scope is on par with any night force or khales Ive looked through. The fact this scope is at the price point it’s at makes it a tremendous value. This definitely wont be my last Steiner scope. I will write another, more complete review when I have about 1000 rounds through it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great scope for the price Not much needs to be said about Vortex optics. They put out rock solid equipment and optics for every level of shooter. The Diamondback tactical it the perfect scope for the hunting I do. I use it mainly for whitetail and coyote hunting. Wooded terrain as well as field hunting. The external turrets make it fast to zero and easy to dial in the longe range shots. Great scope for a great price!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid all around optic I have used the optic for various situations. Whether hunting whitetail in the east coast woods, or reaching out and touching steel plates at distance, this optic by vortex has done the job flawlessly. Best part is this optic is budget friendly and is great for those looking to begin their shooting hobby. Vortex has definitely hit the mark with the Diamondback Tactical 4-12x40.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A fantastic scope! I have several of these on longer range hunting rifles. Tremendous quality!
