Most Helpful Positive Review Vortex Scores a 10 With the new Razor LHT 3-15x42mm
Good things come for those who wait. After a couple of years of searching for the perfect long-range rifle scope for hunting – Vortex just knocked this one out of the ballpark. My criteria were: clear/bright glass; light weight; parallax adjustment; a KISS reticle with windage and elevation marked in the reticle; a zero-stop; a reticle line thick enough to see in shadows; illuminated; and well under $2K. A lot to ask for. I was frustrated with many of the light-weights like Leupold who made “long-range” hunters – but without parallax adjustment and no windage marks for hold over on the hor...

This is by far my favorite scope for a hunting rifle.

by Mike, Verified Owner from NV, United States Written on June 27, 2024
I bought my first LHT a couple years ago for a custom hunting rifle build. When I was looking for scopes, this one just seem to check the most boxes. power range, capped windage, locking elevation, glass etched reticle, MOA designations instead of some garbage BDC, and the big one: Weight! This scope performs. Good eye releif, good eye box, good glass. It seems to be about the perfect comprimise of modern scope scailed for a hunting capable weight. I now have 3 of these. I would love to see a special run of this in a gloss and silver finish.

Clarity beyond price

by LostAtOptics, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on October 27, 2023
I have owned cheaper scopes and dreamed of the high price scopes when standing in a retail store with one up to my eye. Although for the extra bells and whistles I do not think I would spend the money now that I have this Vortex made in Japan scope. With an illuminated red dot and low clutter holdover marks I don't want or need what Swarovski offers.
Pros:
  • Clarity into darker wooded areas, 3-15 magnification, HD glass & a light weight package for my Xbolt Speed SPR .308
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Coastal deer and elk, range fun at 300yds

Vortex Razor HD LHD 3 - 15 X 42 30mm

by Mickey, from NM, United States Written on June 21, 2023
This is the second one of these I’ve bought. I like the coin screw slots on the turrets, power range is just right and the 42 mm lets me mount the scope low. Don’t much care for the zero stop. Power adjustment ring is very stiff. I put a throw lever on the first one I bought but this one is a smaller diameter and I cannot find one.

best optic for the price

by j-dizzle, Verified Owner from UT, United States Written on June 21, 2023
In my experience, this is the best optic for the money considering the features, glass quality, and weight. Vortex is doing what leupold is unable to do. The eyebox is very tight at 15x, at 12x the eyebox is large enough for off hand shooting.

Amazing Lightweight Scope

by JoePa, Verified Owner from WI, United States Written on February 26, 2022
I have this mounted on a Sig Cross and it really completes the package. The whole thing is light as a feather. The glass is very clear and the reticle is simple and easy to use. I am not the biggest fan of the push button illumination, but that is just a preference thing. It functions perfectly.

vortex razor hd lht

by Ray Byrd, from MO, United States Written on April 18, 2021
The scope is great. The glass is superb and the features are awesome. Love the locking turret. I was disappointed that it was not shipped the free two day they say on OpticsPlanet website they have suspended it.

Great hunting scope

by CT, from IN, United States Written on April 17, 2021
Lightweight, high quality optic. Started out with other vortex viper and that scope was just too heavy for my setup. LHT razor is perfectly balanced and ideal for my .300wsm mountain rifle. Elevation clicks could be a little more crisp but that would be my only critique.
Best Used for:
  • hunting
