Like anything Vortex, warranty is second to none, but expect to use it. They have 3 pieces of my glass in their repair shop as I type this.

I bet 75% of the warranty returns are not due to defects in the products.
Viper HD 48x spotter would be a mid range option that's not too bulky.Viper HS LR or a PST would be better options than the Diamondback line.Like anything Vortex, warranty is second to none, but expect to use it. They have 3 pieces of my glass in their repair shop as I type this.
Not sure where so many have sent back for issues? When in the business, Vortex sold 10-1 over others combined. Like Leupold, but for every Vortex that was sent in for warranty, there were 2-3 Leupold that went back. Just my experience..

That could have been a once in a lifetime buck and there is no warranty in the world that would have made up for that. I would never trust a Vortex on a hunting rifle for that reason. Yes they have a great warranty, it is well known how good it is because so many people have had to use it!

All three of my pieces and their warranty issues were absolutely 100% due to manufacturer failure. My stuff doesn't go out on a few sunny saturdays. They get 4 solid months of hard use, in lots of taxing environments. They failed the test. I have lots of Nikon and vx1's and the only scope I have ever had fail me was the most expensive one I own, the Viper HS. I think normal use it would be fine though. Man that was a great buck too
