Precision Rimfire Optic

[Maple57]

Diamondback tactical is popular because they have the features right, but the glass is absolutely brutal. Anyone who might claim otherwise needs to learn how to evaluate glass.

Put a newspaper at 20 yards and you can read the headline, but you could not read the article.

They are great for a PCP air rifle but if you would like to learn to shoot, the optics are below the level needed to read mirage, spot bullet holes or bullets in flight. For this reason I recommend that you spend more now because it will be cheaper than upgrading later.

Well Mr Maple 57 im gonna disagree with you for once. I know ur extremely knowledgeable on many fronts and have stuck up for you on occasion. Anyway we cant compare a 20 year old sfp Bushnell against a FFP Vortex. Its just simple apples and raisins haha but you follow Im sure. The top shooters in the Crps have all used Vortex Diamondback tacticals in the top three positions. This is a fact because I shoot with these fellows on a very regular ocassion. Usually on my own range. I know what you speak of but we are not reading newspapers but punching steel out too 400. Theres also a price cutoff for the production and im not thinkin ur bushnell banner fro 74s gonna cut the mustard. An exageration for point made
