Well UC,at least our individual prejudices are based on first hand experience. The ProDiamond I have has held up on one of those hard kicking .22's real well, but I also had it on a Browning 1885 45-70 for a while and it didn't come apart. I now have it on the Sinful Renegade and it suits that gun real well as far as size, eye relief, etc. Maybe I should give Bushnell another chance. After all, my 20 year boycott may have taught them a thing or two.
