The Vortex Crossfire ® II riflescope was designed primarily for hunters but also for sport shooters . The goal for Vortex was to offer an entry-level rifle scope to compete with Bushnell’s Trophy and more recent Engage models .
The Vortex Crossfire II is a simple and rustic rifle scope, it has the essentials (impact resistance and large caliber, reliability of the turrets and the zoom ring) without superfluous features.
It exists in several zoom and lens diameter formats, sport shooters will turn to models with diameters between 40mm and 44mm. Hunters will prefer models with a diameter between 40mm and 56mm as well as the model with illuminated reticle .
Crossfire II models with a zoom range greater than x10 models are equipped with an adjustable lens . The adjustable lens is used to adjust parallax in the same way as a dedicated parallax turret. The difference between the adjustable lens and the parallax turret is that the former is less expensive to manufacture and therefore enables riflescopes to be offered at a very low cost without sacrificing the parallax adjustment function. As a reminder, the parallax adjustment is not necessary when the zoom range does not exceed x10, on these riflescopes the parallax is fixed and set to 100m.
