Yesterday was Christmas! Got my VORTEX Diamondback 4x12x40 scope and Coyote Vulture 10x50 Binoc's from Doug @ Camera Land!

They arrived several days ago (they are fast @ shipping) but I've been so busy @ work I haven't had the time or energy to open the box until yesterday (imagine that).

But anyway, I haven't had the chance to field test either...but if they operate anywhere near as nice as they feel and look, I'll be ordering more VORTEX optics from Doug.

I've owned and own Redfields, Weavers, Leupold, Burris, Bushnell, Simmons and probably others I've forgotten about.

I am impressed with the the Vortex factory packaging, cosmetics and glass.
For the money, it's a heckuva deal.

Once I have the chance to field test these items, I'll report back. But my instinct tells me I invested wisely.

And thanks to Doug and his staff for making this purchase "hassle-free". They are great folks to deal with!
