Razor HD LHT 4.5-22x50

[Jared Bloomgren]

Vortex introduced the new Razor HD LHT 4.5-22x50 today and I have been lucky enough to be playing with it the last several weeks!

Watch for an upcoming review on this new scope!

I look forward to it!

Where is the glass made on this one? I know Vortex has officially discontinued the AMG series now.

Is that true?

Absolutely true.

Really hoping they come up with another version of the American Made scope. However, from what ive seen, the Japanese glass is top shelf.

That's a lot of scope at 21.7oz. Very nice. Looking forward to the review.

Hey Jared,
Any issues on target acquisition with the busy “Christmas Tree Reticle”? Love the specs on the scope but I have never ran FFP Scope and don’t use the reticle at all (Typically just dial)

I too typically just dial as that is my preferred method. In order to find the desired reference point within the “Christmas tree” it would take you a bit longer I feel to find the mark that you want to use. Although it is easy to decipher it would take some getting used to if you have never used it before.

I read the review and was wondering how usable the reticle is at low power, especially in low light? All my FFP scopes are lacking in this area. Thanks!

It can be difficult to read in this situation as only the crosshairs light up and not all numbers. Another reason I prefer to dial.

I've grabbed one of these....it might just be going on a cz 527 .17 Hornet at this stage. I did have a NXS 3.5-15x50 NXS with a gen 2 mildot on it (or nightforces version of that) that reticle is no longer offered but the reticle was a tad too thick on 15x good for pigs etc. and it kind of overpowered the .17 Hornet.

With an open centre dot it should work well for varmints.

Good write up over on snipers hide comparing the new LHT to Bushnell LRHS

How’s tracking been for everyone with one? I’ve stayed away from Vortex but the 4.5-22 intrigued me and deciding between this and the Zeiss V4 or v6.

 

[Tahoe1305]

Dialed up to 658 yds when I needed it most and bullet hit the heart…..dialed right back to zero.

Not sure if that counts!

 

[Tyeguy]

I really like mine. I’m able to track with it really well as well.

How good is this scope in low light, 1/2 hour before sunrise and 1/2 hour after sunset (or as my brother calls it prime-time-hunting time) I had an Atacr and got rid of it because it didn't perform well in low light.

Also for you guys that have had one for a while does it hold and track after time?
