Looking for info - Black Diamond Optics

[Copper Basin]

Black Diamond Optics 5-25x56mm. I am looking for any info or experience with these scopes. For around $700 they look like a bargain. I know what you are thinking, so am I. Just want some honest evaluations of this scope. Thank you for any info.

Look very similar to Bushnell forge. A lot of decent scope made in China now, look at Athlon, great products for way lower price tag for what you get. A very good option is the Bushnell Lrhs-i 4.5-18 that ga precision sells. 1500$ scope for 750$.

#1 on that Bushnell LRHS 4.5 - 18 x 50 scope (above), ESPECIALLY for $750.!

Ive had one before. Pretty decent glass for the money. I had a 3-15. This was 4 years ago when I had one. One thing I did not understand and didnt like it, was it had moa/mil moa turrets mil ret. I do believe that you can get better turrets for the money, per say the Bushnell as up top was mentioned or the vx5hd or the lrp. This was 4 years ago, so they could've updated some things.

Definitely not bad for the money though. I personally would go another route. All up to what you desire.

That's exactly what I was trying to find out but transparency does not seem to be apparent based on my correspondence directly with them, not with www.saubier.com or http://www.codyscustomguns.com/index.html

seems nobody knows much about these scopes here or on the web,the little i can find has been positive from the people who own them,i got 200 off on mine so after seeing how good the glass is i went for it,my new savage 110 6.5 CM comes Monday and that is what i will be mounting it on.I have seen scopes that cost twice this that don't have as good glass as this scope has.
