Put it on a Ruger Precision Rimfire. Haven't used it a lot yet but did shoot a .22 "tactical" match with it and did well. Glass clarity is good, nice positive click adjustments and a great reticle. It's a good one for rimfires as the parallax adjusts down to 20 yards for close stuff, and the 4 power is useable for offhand shots. I haven't even used the first focal plane feature yet. Good scope, excellent value.

I have this scope mounted on several rifles and have been very happy with them. The glass/image quality is very clear, not as good as the PST Gen 2, but you really can't expect that from a scope that costs less than half. I'm a big fan of the EBR-2C MOA reticle, the same reticle as on my Viper PST Gen 2; it makes going back and forth between various rifles a lot easier. This scope also has the parallax adjustment down to 20 yards; that really comes in handy for me as sometimes I am limited to shooting indoors at 25 yards. I also have these mounted on rimfire rifles, and often, those shots are under 50 yards. There are two things that I feel could be better. First, the turrets. I like that they are exposed, but the clicks are a bit mushy, not nearly as tactile as their higher-end scopes... again, you get what you pay for. Second, the scope covers. The content comes with a rubber bikini-style cover that you have to wrestle with a bit to get over the objective and ocular. I've slingshotted it across the room a few times. Also, unlike plastic bikini covers that just slip on, these rubber covers grip the scope, so if they move, they also turn the eyepiece focus ring; not a big deal, but it means I need to re-focus the reticle often. Overall, for an FFP scope, it is an excellent deal for the price.

Mounted this vortex diamondback tactical scope on a 7mm Rem Mag for elk hunting. On a lead sled, it took five shots to bring it to zero at 100 yards. Then it put three rounds through the same hole. What is not to like about that?

Bought this Vortex 4-16x44 diamondback tactical ffp riflescope for an ar for 300 and less precision shooting. And wow, I was blown away for how good it was for a budget buy. I highly recommend this optic! Very nice clarity at full zoom. No haze around the edging. Another great scope by vortex!

Great riflescope. The vortex diamondback tactical 4-16x44ia better than I expected for this price range. It has very clear glass and a great reticle. Unbelievable value for an FFP scope. I would buy another if I had a gun to put it on. It was shipped fast too.

The Vortex diamondback 4-16x44 is a very clear optic and tracks well. It’s a very nice scope for the money. I have only been out to shoot a couple of times and have had zero issues with it so far. I’ll come back to review once I have had more time to use it.

I placed this vortex 4-16x44 diamondback tactical scope on my Savage 110 tactical in 308, and it performs. I was looking for a Mil-dot scope that would work for both hunting and tactical applications, and this scope delivers on both. You won't break the bank but will have everything necessary to reach out and hit the target. The adjustments are spot on, and the glass is pretty clear for an optic in this price range. I've even already dropped it a few times, and it still holds zero. If you are in the market, go ahead and pull the trigger. (pun intended)

Bought together with the Vortex mount. The very nice and sturdy piece at the price. The first day at the range sighted in great. I will be back and looking forward to the fine-tuning. All the great features needed with anti-fog/ weatherproofing. The reticle is a bit too fine, almost transparent; but it should look great on clear days (I'm in N. WA)

I bought this vortex diamondback tactical scope roughly nine months ago and waited to leave a review. It has been tested at the range (desert shooting) and hunting. I bought it to mount on my Ruger American Predator 6.5 CM, and it is mounted with a DMZ single piece scope ring. Keep in mind I would be considered a novice, but I enjoy shooting and hunting, and I am learning. My experience with a variateybof scopes is lacking. However, I am impressed with this scope. At 4x, I would feel confident seeing the crosshairs out in the field of trying to shoot a close deer range. In full 16x, it has excellent clarity. It holds its zero well. I wanted to take it out to the desert before hunting to check it’s zero, and the first shot at 100 yds was dead center, not an exaggeration. I couldn’t have poked a pencil through it and done a better job. The following shots were right there too. Adjustments appear to be accurate based on sighting in, will practice more with not using holdovers and using the turrets. The clarity in low light is excellent. I spotted a deer just at first light when I could hardly see. I pulled my gun out laid down and looked through the scope to see what it was. Unfortunately, it was a doe but could see this clear as day with little light at full power. Keep in mind I had just turned off my headlamp a few minutes prior while hiking in. I do not understand the comments that say this is a downfall to this scope. Same with last light when testing it out in the backcountry with bushes and rocks mixed in the background, excellent clarity, and easy to see everything in detail. I would recommend for as a hunting scope, especially when dealing with open terrain like big game hunting in the western US, where you may have to take longer shots. I have complete confidence in my gun, partly due to this scope.
