I'm looking for a decent spotter, and thought I'd ask here about this one. I know it not a top shelf, but does it focus well, and is clear, not foggy ? Worth the money ? And who likes angled or straight, and why ?
If you have a chance to look through one I would check it out before hand. I had a diamondback 20-60x80 for about two years and sold it. My dad won a $200 Bushnell in a raffle and it was much better than that one but I never was totally impressed with it. Up to about 30-35x it seemed to keep decent clarity and sharpness. However, at higher powers it lost a lot of detail.
I ended up selling that scope and and got a razor 11-33x50. The new scope has awesome clarity and sharpness all the way up to 33x and is about half the size and weight. For the money I'm sure the diamondback is hard to beat, just know it won't stay crystal clear up to 60x like a $2000 scope will. I would ultimately suggest going somewhere that has multiple scopes on display and look through ones in whatever price range your looking for.
