Vortex Razor HD
« on: November 15, 2018, 10:20:44 AM »
Anyone using the razor 22-48x65? Looking at purchasing a spotting scope. I want to know if this scope is recommended or should I spend a lot more and get a Swarovski.

Thanks
Jeff

Vortex makes great stuff I have the new razor 27x60 it works great but if you got the money buy Swarovski instead. There stuff is alot better built and provides a crisper image. I just recently upgraded to some slc binos

The answer is it depends....

I have a 27-60 Razor and I've looked through $2,000+ spotters.  Could I tell a difference?  Yes.  Was it worth it to me to spend $1,000 more to get there?  No, not for what I use a spotter for, which is strictly long range shooting and bear hunting.

This is probably the best spotting scope review you'll come across.  Keep in mind it's the older gen Razor, but it'll give you a good idea as to what you get when you step up to that next level.
