I am not Bobby but I had a Vortex Razor LH for a short time. The optics were very good but the crosshairs were too fine for me. They were fine in daylight hours but when I tested them at dusk, looking back into the woods behind my house, they disappeared well before the NF, Zeiss, Meopta, Leupold, and Athlon did.
I know they are illuminated but to be honest I could not see why I should have to turn it on a good half hour earlier that any of the other scopes mentioned just be able to do what they did without illumination.
For my eyes, I think it would make a good range scope where most of the shooting is done is good sunlight but for me it was a no go for hunting.
Then, what is the purpose of an illuminated reticle?
