Does anybody have any experience with Vortex optics?

Buddy has a scope on a .308 AR, very nice glass. I feel like they are exceptional value for the quality. I think they offer a lifetime warranty but I may be wrong.

I've got a pair of their binoculars that I bought as a smaller pair to keep in my vehicle or something. I wasn't very impressed with them, and they have recently broken. They do have a lifetime warranty which is good, so I need to send them in. My better pair of binoculars are Nikon Monarchs. I have used Vortex spotting scopes and binoculars of the same dimensions as my Nikons. Those binoculars and the scope were of good quality.

I think that pair I own isn't made anymore, and it was from quite a few years ago. So, clearly that model wasn't that good and/or they have made some improvements.

I compared the Nikon monarch 5 and vortex diamondbacks last year. Chose the vortex because of price. Nice so far.
