Terrible
Bought a pair of Diamondback binoculars which I love and then bought this tripod adapter that I actually hate! How can a company that puts out such great optics and I have two rifle scopes as well make an adapter for their optics that don't work? I may as well have taken the money and burned it. First it doesn't even get close to tightening to the bino's, and then when it's as tight as you can get it the binos just sways side to side on the tripod. How did the design of this get through production? I know it's only twenty-five dollars, but now I have to return it, now I have to go buy something else and search for it, just so disappointed after I had to wait three weeks to get it.

Good idea, bad execution
Just bought this mount and a pair of diamondback HD 10x50. Got home and tried to mount them to a tripod. First problem is it’s a super tight fit for your fingers to try and tighten the screw down. When it got too tight for me to move I noticed the next issue. It never actually gets tight against the binoculars. The binos just sit there and rock side-to-side on the mount. My first thought was “no way.” I mean how can a company that makes optics not figure out a mount. So I tried to tighten it with a pair of pliers. Gave it a quarter turn more and didn’t want to go any further for fear of breaking something. I scratched up the tripod adapter in the process so now I don’t know what to do. Hopefully Cabelas has another option and will accept a return.

Needs Tweaking
I just got the 15x56 Vulture HD which I'm very happy with. I found I can freehand on glassing up to 400 yards and closer but you most certainly want a steady base at anything further out.
A flaw was I needed a pair of needle nose pliers to tighten up the Tripod Adapter as well as putting an extra washer to snug up the play that I was experiencing(not sure if I just didn't receive a washer or not?) Being its a pain to take on and off its little cumbersome and annoying to go from freehand to the tripod so it be nice to have the Adapter a bit more user friendly.
Attaching to a quick disconnect is key from going to a window mount to a tripod. Hope this helps and good hunting...
