I am not a Vortex fan at all either but I purchased 4 of the Razor LH scopes when they were on sale because I liked them so much. Turrets are mushy but other than that I have been very impressed. Great optics in a compact package. I am pretty much all Swarovski, Leica and Zeiss on everything but the Razor LH found its way to my collection. Still not sure how but I like that particular scope and reticle. Good luck!
