Product Description
Vortex Crossfire HD 6-18x50 ILL Deadhold 2a BDC
Experience precision with the Vortex Crossfire HD 6-18x50 ILL Deadhold 2a BDC. Built for the hunt, this riflescope delivers sharper detail and improved light transmission from first light to last shadow. The illuminated center dot boosts accuracy in low-light conditions, giving you the confidence to own every shot and make the most of dwindling daylight. Whether you're threading shots through dense timber or dialing in at range, this optic is designed to help you stay on target when it matters most.
The HD Optical System is optimized with select glass elements to minimize chromatic aberration while maximizing resolution, color fidelity, and edge-to-edge sharpness. The result is clearer imagery, richer contrast, and true-to-life targets across varying light conditions. Fully multi-coated lenses further boost light transmission, reduce glare, and enhance brightness across the field of view. In practical terms, you’ll notice brighter sight pictures in dim dawn or twilight hours, making it easier to acquire and lock onto game without sacrificing detail in the periphery.
At the heart of this scope is the Illuminated Dead-Hold 2A BDC reticle, a thoughtful fusion of trusted holdover guidance with an illuminated floating center dot for quick, precise aiming in low light. The Dead-Hold design helps you compensate for wind drift and range at different distances without constantly reconfiguring settings. When visibility is compromised, the illuminated center dot guides your focus exactly where it should land, reducing guesswork and enabling faster target acquisition on moving game or in varied terrain.
Durability is built into every aspect of the Crossfire HD. Constructed from a solid block of aircraft-grade aluminum, this scope offers exceptional rigidity and resilience in the field. The low-glare matte black anodize reduces reflections for better concealment, while the waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof design stands up to the toughest weather and recoil. Whether you’re stalking under a drizzle, chasing late-season rut, or shooting from a rain-soaked blind, this optic maintains optical integrity and mechanical reliability shot after shot.
In terms of optics and ergonomics, the Crossfire HD pairs a 50 mm objective with a 6-18x magnification, delivering a balanced blend of light gathering and versatility. The second focal plane (SFP) reticle stays consistent in size as you dial up or down, ensuring holdover references stay proportional to the target. A fast-focus eyepiece lets you quickly bring the reticle into sharp focus for rapid target acquisition after switching to a new distance or engaging moving game. The 30 mm tube provides ample internal adjustment while keeping the overall footprint practical for day-to-day hunting packs and mounts. The eye relief of 3.8 inches offers comfortable viewing with a wide field of view, helping you keep eyes on your surroundings while maintaining a stable cheek weld.
Key specifications at a glance help you gauge how this scope fits your hunting needs: 6-18x magnification with a 50 mm objective, a 3.8" eye relief, and a field of view that transitions from 18.7 feet to 6.0 feet at 100 yards. Turret styling features capped adjustments for durable reliability in the field, with a precise 1/4 MOA per click and a travel of 15 MOA per rotation. With a maximum elevation and windage of 70 MOA each, you have ample adjustment range for longer-range shots while preserving turret accuracy and consistency. The parallax setting starts near practical hunting distances (10 yards) to minimize parallax error and improve aiming consistency across typical field conditions.
