Vortex Optics

American, family-owned Vortex Optics was selected by the U.S. Army to produce and deliver up to 250,000 Next Generation Squad Weapons – Fire Control (NGSW-FC) systems.

As so often happens when stalking pronghorn antelope, failure comes before success. I was hunting on the vast Crow Reservation in southeast Montana – an area that defines big, open country with little stalking cover – and had already blown one attempt when a previously unseen band of pronghorn materialized and spooked the herd I was stalking.

I’ll say at the outset that the title of this review is a lie. In order to do a “full review” of the new Vortex Fury binos, I’d need a lot more copy space than my editor is going to give me. The Vortex Fury HB 5000 AB is so loaded with features and functionalities [...]

Its rugged waterproof, shockproof, and fog-proof design protect it even in the harshest elements, and its battery life means it’ll keep going and going and going no matter how long you use it. If you’re in the market for a new red dot, I’d give the Vortex SPARC Solar a look.

This optic is different than the Gen I in a few ways, including the addition of four night vision compatible brightnesses and the elimination of the micro USB charging port. It has robust aluminum construction, QD lever-lock system, and a waterproof rating of IPX8, meaning that it can be submerged in water deeper than 3 feet. Everything about the AMG UH-1 Gen II screams durability, repeatability, and dependability.

The answer to, “What is the best budget long-range rifle scope?” is definitely up for debate, along with other related topics. Because of this, let’s discuss why I think Vortex’s Strike Eagle 5-25×56 is the clear winner of its division.

Vortex Optics would like to honor their courage and their commitment. For the next 60 days, from April 27 to June 26, frontline medical personnel get 40% off on up to two optics, up to two optics accessories, and up to five items of Vortex Wear apparel.

We’re honored to announce that the US Army – PM Soldier Lethality awarded Vortex® an agreement to deliver the Next Generation Squad Weapon-Fire Control (NGSW-FC) Production Ready Prototypes for Soldier TouchPoint (STP) evaluations.
