I’m personally not a Vortex fan. I put a diamondback on my sons rifle due to the bulletproof warranty. Got to Bullet and Barrel to sight it in and you could watch the crosshairs move after each shot. Surprising to me the two range masters had seen the problem before with Vortex scopes and actually don’t carry them in their store because of it. I immediately returned it to Cabelas, bought a Leupold and asked for forgiveness.

I’ve got plenty of buddies who live by Vortex I just happened to have a bad experience with them and will never go back. Now that Nikon is out of the sporting optics business it’s either Sig Sauer, Leupold or Zeiss for me.
