About to pull the trigger on a Vortex diamondback 20-60x60 spotting scope. Any input about this product before I purchase it?

I looked thru one at the range a month or so ago and it was very clear.

I'm not a huge fan of Vortex scopes but like their spotters and binoculars.
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

A buddy bought a very cool vortex scope for his AR. However it's very individual on how you adjust the focus on it. For his focus it was just fine. For me any movement off center of my eye alignment left me with a fuzzy outer circle in the view.

Look at Kowa first. You might spend 25% more but you'll like it.

I found a great deal on Celestron. They are best known for the telescopes, but make a great spotting scope too.
