The Diamondback 3-9x40 Dead-Hold BDC upgrades the classic hunting scope format with intelligent ballistic compensation, perfect for Australian hunters wanting simple holdover capability in a proven package. This second focal plane riflescope combines the versatile 3-9x magnification range with Vortex's Dead-Hold BDC reticle system, providing calibrated aiming points for common Australian hunting cartridges without complex turret adjustments. The 40mm objective lens delivers bright, clear images across diverse lighting conditions, whilst fully multi-coated optics ensure excellent contrast and resolution for confident target identification. Starting at 3x magnification, the scope offers rapid target acquisition in thick scrub and close-range scenarios, whilst 9x provides ample precision for medium-range shots across farmland and clearings to 350 metres. The Dead-Hold BDC reticle features intuitive hash marks that streamline range estimation and holdover calculations, perfect for fast-paced hunting situations. Built on a robust one-inch tube, the scope maintains traditional proportions suited to classic Australian hunting rifles. Durable construction withstands harsh field conditions from tropical humidity to alpine environments, ensuring reliable performance throughout demanding hunting seasons.
Recommended use: Ideal all-purpose scope for Australian hunters wanting BDC capability in a traditional format. Perfect for deer, pigs, and goats across varied terrain. Excellent for Victorian forest hunting, Queensland scrub stalking, and NSW farmland shooting. The BDC system suits hunters preferring reticle holdover over turret dialling.
