Overview
Exposed tactical turrets built for dialing elevation and windage allow quick and precise bullet drop and wind drift compensation at extended ranges. When we say precise - we mean it. These turrets track better than any Bloodhound and reliably return to zero every time. A zero-reset feature lets you re-index the zero reference marks on both turrets after sight in, while fiber optic rotation indicators integrated into the turrets provide a visual cue of your turret’s position.

The easiest scope to sight in.
I purchased a vortex diamondback tactical scope on Black Friday 2016. I sighted it in at 50 yards because I was having trouble getting my other scopes on paper. At that range I held three round high and left at 1:00. After I made my adjustments, I fired 3 more rounds and was dead on. I moved my target back to 100 yards I fired my second group. Still right where I wanted it. I made my second adjustment to be two inches high at 100. Needless to say I filled my tags in the first week of rifle season. I am very happy with Vortex scopes. I plan on buying more to replace the scopes I have on my other rifles. Thank you Vortex for a great product.

Absolutely worth it!
Bought a Savage Model 11 T in .233Rem. It came with a Nikon 3-9x40 BDC Scope. Took the Rifle Coyote hunting 2 weeks ago. With Winchester Silvertip 55gr I achieved a group of 1.56IN at 50M. I didn't get a shot that weekend on a yote. But I knew the gun was better. I ordered the Diamondback Tactical w/ VMR-1 Reticle. Today with crud weather conditions and same ammo, Winchester Silvertip 55gr, my 50M zero was tighter than a dime. My group at 100M was 0.78IN. There isn't a safe coyote in the county now. The scope was effortless to zero. And I have no doubt that this gun/round/scope package is the best I have in my safe. I absolutely love it.

World class optics
Bought this having owned a viper pst. This is as clear and bright.perfect for my .223.Vortex are the only glass anyone should consider.corrections made through the turrets are perfect.field of view bright clear with a precise reticle for hold overs in second focal plane.easily zeroed turrets with no need for a tool.vortex are the only optics I will ever purchase.I've recommended to family and friends.this is my second vortex but not my last. I'm in the military and have shot long range with other top end optics but vortex far exceeds them and with a realistic price tag to match. One word to describe vortex , , , precision !!!!!
