Vortex Crossfire HD 6-18x50 Widerange Plex

The Vortex Crossfire HD 6-18x50 Widerange Plex is built for the hunt and ready for the shot. With its WideRange Plex reticle, this scope helps you pick out fine details for hair-splitting accuracy at long range. Designed for open terrain and extended-range shooting, its thinner crosshairs reduce obstruction, letting you lock in on small, distant targets with higher clarity and focus. When every millimeter counts, you need an optic that delivers edge-to-edge sharpness, true color fidelity, and dependable performance in challenging conditions.

At the heart of the Crossfire HD is a purpose-built HD optical system. Optimized with select glass elements, it minimizes chromatic aberration while maximizing resolution, contrast, and light transmission. The result is a crisp sight picture that reveals subtle nuances in terrain and target texture, even when light is fading or contrast is low. Paired with anti-reflective, fully multi-coated lenses, this scope offers superb low-light performance and increased brightness across the entire image. If you hunt dawn, dusk, or over long distances, the HD optical path gives you the advantage of clearer, more natural color rendition from edge to edge.

The WideRange Plex reticle is designed specifically for open-country shooting. The thinner crosshairs reduce visual clutter, so you can track moving targets or lock onto distant deer, pigs, or varmints with less obstruction. The reticle’s MOA-based design translates quickly to holdoffs and adjustments, empowering you to adapt on the fly as conditions change or as targets shift position. Combined with a second focal plane (SFP) layout, the reticle remains the same apparent size as you zoom, preserving familiarity and aiming instinct across 6-18x magnification. This makes long-range windage and elevation corrections more intuitive when you can’t rely on a quick refocus.

Built to withstand real-world field use, the Crossfire HD is crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum. This construction delivers the rigidity and durability needed for demanding recoil and rugged trekking through brush, mud, or rain. The low-glare matte black anodize reduces shine and helps conceal your position in exposed environments, giving you a tactical edge without drawing attention. It’s designed to be water-resistant and fogproof, so sudden weather changes or temperature shifts won’t degrade your sight picture. And with shock resistance engineered into its chassis, it’s ready to handle high-recoil rifles and heavy calibers you might push at extended ranges.

Key performance details you’ll rely on in the field include a generous eye relief of 3.8 inches, a wide field of view that ranges from 18.7 feet to 6.0 feet at 100 yards, and reliable turret adjustments. The Crossfire HD uses capped turrets with precise 1/4 MOA graduation and 15 MOA travel per rotation, allowing you to dial in your holds and reach the 70 MOA maximum elevation and 70 MOA maximum windage. With a 30mm tube, the optic provides ample internal adjustment range while maintaining a compact and balanced profile on a wide variety of rifle setups. The objective lens diameter of 50 mm contributes to light gathering and resolution, supporting better target separation in lower light and at longer distances.

In terms of general usability, the scope includes a fast-focus eyepiece that lets you quickly lock onto a sharp reticle focus. This is especially useful when you’re switching between hunting scenarios, wind conditions, or targets at varying distances. The combination of a fast-eye relief, crisp edge-to-edge sharpness, and high-contrast imaging helps you acquire and hold your target more confidently, so your shot preparation feels more natural and predictable. The overall balance between weight (22.6 oz) and strength means it remains manageable on a variety of rifles, without compromising stability during aiming or tracking movement.
