I’m looking for some opinions on Vortex’s Crossfire Compact spotting scope with the 50mm objective. I’ve used crossfire binos and a scope before and have upgraded out of both. I typically think that vortex’s quality stuff starts in the viper line, but that their Diamondback series are fine for people just dipping a toe into hunting on a budget.
Obviously for $200 I wouldn’t be expecting the world. But I see limited information and am just curious if anyone has spent the cash and tried it in a serious hunting environment I’d be interested to find out its performance in low light and at distance, and if you have any experience you could share comparing it to other scopes or glass you use. I hunt northern and central ID and would like a compact spotter mainly for digiscoping to share with my kids, make animal viewing easier for them if they’re out with me or filming a kill shot for review.
