Product Description
Vortex Crossfire HD 3-9x40 Straightwall BDC Riflescope
The Vortex Crossfire HD 3-9x40 Straightwall BDC is built for the hunt and ready for the shot. Designed for hunters using straight-wall cartridges like.450 Bushmaster, 350 Legend, and.45-70 Government, this riflescope delivers precise holds at longer ranges through its Straight-Wall BDC reticle. Its rugged construction and optical performance are tailored to endure demanding field conditions while helping you maximize your shot potential.
Key to its performance is the HD Optical System, optimized with select glass elements to deliver exceptional resolution, minimal chromatic aberration, and true color fidelity. Combined with Fully Multi-Coated lenses, the scope maintains high light transmission across all weather and lighting conditions, ensuring you maintain a clear sight picture from dawn to dusk.
Fast-Focus Eyepiece allows quick and easy reticle focusing, so you can reacquire your target without losing sight of your aiming point, even after a fast follow-up shot. The entire assembly is machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, providing superior strength and rigidity without adding unnecessary weight.
The Crossfire HD is finished in a low-glare matte black anodize, designed to reduce shine and improve concealment in the field. It is built to be waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, ready to withstand rain, temperature swings, and the recoil of larger straight-wall cartridges.
Straight-Wall BDC Reticle for Long-Range Holds

This reticle provides holdover references that translate to practical shooting at longer ranges, helping you choose precise aiming points for your preferred cartridge geometry.
