Looks like a pretty good deal on a hunting scope if you like Vortex. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-55403-254728-vortex.png) Vortex 4x-16x-42mm @ Midway

They can't give them away. I will defer to Tommy on their quality and guarantee. ![[Linked Image]](https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-nXFNSBX/0/f812f9db/M/i-nXFNSBX-M.jpg)

Interesting the website says COMING SOON but the status says the product is overdue Sounds contradictory sort of like good scope and Vortex (Crossfire) in the same sentence ....

Are there particular models that are more prone to issues?
My 5-15x44 HS midway special has been real good to me?

Anything less than a pst all though the older viper 30 mm tube 6.5-20 was a decent scope and was reasonably tough.. but they changed it and not the same.. Them diamond back scopes make for a good 22 scope but don’t expect to dial 200 yards with one unless you got a 20+ moa rail

If I was looking for a scope on a tight budget I'd buy it. I have the 2-7 Diamondback HP on a a rimfire, and a straight Diamondback on an old .243 loaner rifle. The HP has noticeably better clarity, side focus and all. That's a great price.
An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

I just got one of these. Got it mounted last night, will shoot the gun some this weekend. I put it on a cheapo Savage Axis. One thing worth noting, at least with the Talley ring/base combo I used, this scope didn't fit on the Medium rings. I wouldn't have thought you'd need the high, but for this particular rifle I did. I have a milling machine, so I modified the rear base to make it work.
