NEW Vortex 2021 Lineup

[gcronin]

Hey everyone,

Vortex has announced our new 2021 lineup and I wanted to make sure Rokslide was some of the first to know about these killer new products. Here is the all-new gear designed to help you in the field or on the range for 2021:

Fury® HD 5000 AB: Eliminate the unknown.

The next generation Fury® HD 5000 AB takes the guess work out of dialing long-range shots with in-display ballistic data, built-in environmental sensors, and wind bearing capture mode, which means less time calculating ballistics and more time putting rounds down range.
• In-display wind/drop solutions via integrated Applied Ballistics® Elite Solver
• Customize ballistic profiles via the Fury HD App
• Full crosswind and wind bearing capture modes
• Pairs with Kestrel® wind meters and Applied Ballistics® Garmin® devices

No questions yet, but really excited about the carbon tripods

Where are the tripods made?

Is the glass in the fury any better than gen 2?

Great questions - while all of the tripods are designed and engineered here in house, the Radian Carbon is manufactured in China and the Summit Carbon II, Ridgeview Carbon, and High Country II are manufactured in Thailand.

Optically, the Fury HD 5000 AB is the same as the previous model.

sorry but if i'm dropping $900+ on a tripod it's going to be European or USA made

Just to be clear, the prices you see on the website are the MSRP. All of our new tripods are sub $900.

Just ordered the 5000 ABs. Been needing a new rangefinder and just sold my binos, so perfect timing. Never had a combo bino/rangefinder before so we'll see how it goes.

Awesome - let me know what you think of it when you get your hands on it!

Graham, you guys really should have tweaked the optics in this new Fury. It would have set you apart from the Sig300 which has the same optics, and practically the same functions.

Appreciate the feedback, my friend! We wanted to have them be at an affordable price point for the features you get. Increasing the optical quality, while it would be awesome, would really increase in the price of the unit. One important factor to look at when comparing is ranging capabilities and how far they will give ballistics out to. This is what really sets the Fury HD 5000 AB in my mind. It will range reflective targets out to 5,000 yards and will give ballistics all the way out to that distance. The ballistics are not limited to any distance.

I would also buy a pair of I could get your best glass in the package. It would certainly be nice to have that option!

I would like to see you guys sacrifice absolutely nothing and put out the world’s best RF Bino.

Take a shot at Leica and Zeiss by integrating your UHD glass into a technologically advanced RF bino.

I bet you could do it for less than a 3500.com and actually have the BT work consistently.
