The Vortex Crossfire II AO 6-24x50mm 30mm Tube Second Focal Plane Rifle Scope is shockproof, designed to withstand recoil and impact. However, Vortex does not provide a specific recoil rating in regard to calibers it can withstand. I'd recommend reaching out to them directly for more information.

Vortex does not offer custom turrets for the Vortex Crossfire II AO 6-24x50mm Rifle Scope. However, there are some aftermarket companies that will make a custom turret for Vortex Optics. I recommend contacting Vortex to see if they have a recommendation for a aftermarket custom turret for the Vortex Crossfire II AO 6-24x50mm Rifle Scope.
