Illuminated Reticle
Provides precise aiming under low-light conditions
CONSTRUCTION FEATURES
Tube Size
34 mm diameter provides maximized internal adjustment and strength.
Single-Piece Tube
Maximizes alignment for improved accuracy and optimum visual performance, as well as ensures strength and waterproofness.
Aircraft-Grade Aluminum
Constructed from a solid block of aircraft-grade aluminum for strength and rigidity.
Waterproof
O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust and debris from penetrating for reliable performance in all environments.
Fogproof
Argon gas purging prevents internal fogging over a wide range of temperatures.
Shockproof
Rugged construction withstands recoil and impact.
Hard Anodized Stealth Shadow Finish
Highly durable hard-coat anodization provides a low-glare matte surface and helps camouflage the shooter's position.
ArmorTek ®
Ultra-hard, scratch-resistant coating protects exterior lenses from scratches, oil and dirt.

Maximized Turret Zero Adjustment
Turret design allows expanded adjustment range when L-Tec zero stop feature is disengaged for zeroing purposes.
Micro Adjust Zero Setting
Infinite zero setting positions allow zero to be set between clicks for optimal accuracy.
Friction Reduction System
Heat-treated, hardened-steel pad floats on the end of the turret screw and interfaces with a hardened steel ring on the erector tube for steel-on-steel contact. Prevents galling or deformation of the erector screw contact point for superior durability and
Turret Screws
Provides low-friction, wear-resistant performance: precision-machined from a silicon-brass alloy and treated with an advanced dry-film lubricant. Turret screw threads are precision machined to sub-2 micron tolerances (less than 78-millionths of an inch).
Erector Tube System
Precision-machined from aircraft grade aluminum with anti-galling properties for a lighter weight, strong, durable tube. Stainless Steel offset coil spring erector biasing system withstands much higher stresses than traditional flat erector springs and al

You won't be disappointed!
I own over 15 vortex optics but this is my first Razor HD. I was hesitant about spending the extra money for the HD version considering all my other Vortex Optics are top knotch and Crystal clear, but I'm glad I did. I got this for a 6.5 creedmoor build and all I can say is WOW! This is a beast, difference between day and night. This scope is in a class of it's own. Well built, like a tank. Easy to see and use turrets. Turrets lock down so no way of accidental moving. Looking through this scope you see a world of difference. This is by far the best scope on the market! You will not regret buying this scope!!

Clear, Precise, and Intuitive
I recently purchased two of the Razor HD Gen II 4.5-27x56 Optics, one in H59, the other in Tremor3. The glass is crystal clear, even at 27x magnification. The adjustments are precise and Marine proof. Working with a wide variety of optics from several manufacturers, I found this optic to be quite intuitive (zeroing, zero stop, etc.). I run Vortex Razor HD optics on a variety of platforms and calibers, never have I found them to be lacking. All in all, I am very please with the optics and have zero complaints. The only suggestion I would make is to include lens caps and a bubble level as part of the package.

My go to competition scope.
I own 4 of the Gen 2 Razors and use them in National level Precision Rifle Series and NRL matches. Every single one has been rock solid with not a single quality issue or failure. I have seen scopes go down at rifle matches from about every other top end manufacturer, I have never seen a Gen 2 Razor fail the user at any of the events I have attended. One of our catch phrases of the top end shooters in recommending gear is "buy once cry once" well I have bought the Gen 2 four times and never cried once. I know I am getting the best product for my money with this optic.
