KISS - Finally. This is one of Vortex's GREAT long-range hunting scopes. FFP is great for match shooters who are compeating in broad daylight and shooting at white spray-painted steel gongs. For seeing game in low light, and at closer ranges (inside 200Y) using the lower power - FFP is worthless. Second Focal Plane SFP is much more practical. The SFP light weight LHT 42mm with the HSR-5i reticle is just about PERFECT. The simple red dot in the center does'nt kill your night vision by lighting up an entire Christmas Tree reticle - If, you would be using it as a true DMR. Home Run Vortex !!! It would be nice if they made a 2-10 version for the rest of the hunting community that are competant to shoot out to 300 Y.
Thanks Captain Obvious! It’s meant to be a lightweight hunting scope numbnutz, not a tactical dialer! Most experienced hunters want a second focal plane, so you can actually see the reticle at low power. Wise up clown!
This is a funny video! Got the scope weight wrong, almost fell down (careful that cliff!), then got his shell casing sitting backwards in his ejection port. 😄
The 42mm version of this scope is great, I wish Vortex would bring it with G4i reticle which is much more practial than this HSR-5i. Dunno why this is only available with the 50mm version...
Is there a brand Eastman’s won’t sell its soul for. Every rifle or optic is a must have. How about just once say this “whatever” is not the best option blah blah blah. Not everything can be the best.
No. Its specific values of mrad/moa. For example if you know that you have to turn 18 clicks, but dont have time you turn the turret, you can use the hash mark with the same value that you would have turned

Did anyone else notice his brass was backwards when he went back to the zero stop before shooting the 200yd shot lol.
All 6.5 PRC’s load this way. It helps with global warming.

I believe the HD stands for High Density, the type of glass
you are correct
Thank you very much for this review. I purchased this scope because of this review and I absolutely love it. Thanks again.
Second focal plane means that the reticle subtensions only correspond to ONE magnification setting, which is almost always maximum power.

I bought almost this exact setup, excited to use it!

The reticle sub tensions only work at max magnification.
Jacob Brazell unless he made a mistake and it’s an FFP scope... I hope he made a mistake so I can get one. No sfp for me.

Can't believe this scope made it to market with the flawed illumination switch. Will be sending mine back after hunting season.
Excellent review looks like really good scope 👌
The 42mm version of this scope is great, I wish Vortex would bring it with G4i reticle which is much more practial than this HSR-5i. Dunno why this is only available with the 50mm version...
Wish they made it a 3-18 or had a 5-25x50 model
Helped made my decision even easier since thats the same exact gun and caliber ill be putting that scope on
A this a review? Or an advertisement made by Vortex?
Think this will be good for a 300 win mag?
Yes. Another reviewer has one on his.
That's a very good scope! How much the price is? And where did you buy it from?
Building an eighteen inch ar 10 Dmr out of JP enterprises parts and Criterion barrel.Looking for a scope for it. I like the weight of this scope.
Nice men.I like your rifle
Jesus Christ. It sure would be nice to get an optic review vs a paid advertisement.
I'm looking for a scope with bolded crosshairs, normal ones are a little difficult for me to see.
Not sure if this one will do the trick
I had that rifle it has like no kick fist 308 I ever shot and everyone told me they kick hard it felt like a 20 gauge to me
I have a nosler m21 in 6.5 CM. This or Ziess Conquest V4?
I was out at .25”=.25moa, when someone thinks inches and MOA are the same it’s obvious they don’t shoot
Right? He was way off. Should have said .26175“. He would have missed by more than 3/16 of an inch with that math at 400 yards.
Is the Bergara the Highlander?
Yes it is.
How is that rifle?
Is there a brand Eastman’s won’t sell its soul for. Every rifle or optic is a must have. How about just once say this “whatever” is not the best option blah blah blah. Not everything can be the best.
What Leupold does it compete with?
Which Vortex mount did you use?
Is that the rock formation on I90 close to Drummond, MT? I'm from Missoula, and SWEAR that's the same one.
5 Springs, Big Horn Mountains, Wyoming.
What is the rifle rest he used to hold the butt of the stock up? Anyone know?
LHT = Light Hunting Tactial
Great video !
What is the weigh of your rifle including scope?
Thank you
19.1oz
Hmmmm. HD is high dispersion.
Is that scopes terit set up for specific bullets???
No. Its specific values of mrad/moa. For example if you know that you have to turn 18 clicks, but dont have time you turn the turret, you can use the hash mark with the same value that you would have turned
What rifle is that mounted on?
Bergara Highlander...awesome rifle
👍
7.40 wtf? Lol
