Title: Bass pro vortex scopes
Post by: jstone on May 15, 2019, 10:49:16 AM: Bass pro has a 6 month payment plan no interest. I am looking for a new Vortex scope for my .243 around 600 bucks. What’s your opinion

Thanks

Of the four I have, three of them are the Razor HD LH 3-15x42 and the other is a HS-T 4-16x44. Not sure Bass Pro or Cabela's carry the Vortex Razor HD LH anymore and they'd be above your price cap.

The Vortex HS-T I have is actually a pretty decent scope for its price range and that would be the one I'd recommend. I just bought a new Seekins SP10 and that HS-T 4-16x44 I have sitting on the shelf will be going on it.
