I\u2019ll say at the outset that the title of this review is a lie. In order to do a \u201cfull review\u201d of the new Vortex Fury binos, I\u2019d need a lot more copy space than my editor is going to give me. The Vortex Fury HB 5000 AB<\/a> is so loaded with features and functionalities that Vortex put out an entire nine-part series of 10-minute videos<\/a> just to outline its basic functions. Carrying the Fury is like carrying around a NASA engineer in your pocket, and I\u2019ve had a blast learning its ins-and-outs since Vortex released the product in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fury HB 5000 AB<\/a> is a range-finding binocular with a built-in heads up display that can provide holdover and windage adjustments for a reflective target out to 5000 yards, trees out to 2400 yards, and deer out to 1600 yards. It provides this functionality with the help of an Applied Ballistics Elite solver, which uses distance, temperature, elevation, humidity, wind, and other environmental factors to provide a precise point of aim for each shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real-world applications of this are obvious enough. Rather than shuffle back and forth between binoculars, a range finder, a ballistics solver, and a weather meter, hunters and shooters can get an exact adjustment using only the Fury (as long as a weather meter is connected via Bluetooth\u2014more on this below). If you set it up correctly, it\u2019ll give you the right windage and holdover for a first-shot hit at almost any distance and in almost any weather condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a cool $1999.99 MSRP, the Fury is, as I like to tell my wife, an investment. You can find it for something closer to $1,500 on other websites, but it\u2019s the kind of high-quality, super helpful gear that promises to pay for itself in rung steel and wild game meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Features, Features, Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Fury binos can be used as traditional binoculars, and in that capacity, they\u2019re excellent. The glass is clear and anti-reflective, and I found the resolution and contrast to be top-notch even at long distances. Like the previous iteration of the Fury, the Fury AB features a tough, scratch-resistant exterior and fog-proofing over a wide range of temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space
The Fury’s glass is excellent.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But you don\u2019t drop 2K on these binos to ignore their electronic functionality. I won\u2019t reinvent the wheel and go through the entire setup , but here\u2019s the first video in the Vortex series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The setup process is relatively painless with the help of these videos, though you might struggle if you\u2019re not comfortable using a smart phone. The Fury\u2019s settings and features are mostly operated via the Vortex Fury HD app, including firearm profiles, environmental information, and target parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, the Fury offers a near-infinite number of features, but here are a few I\u2019ve found helpful (or otherwise).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ranging<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides magnification, instant ranging is the Fury\u2019s most useful feature. Users take a range by placing the reticle on an object and pressing the \u201cMeasure\u201d button on the top of the binos. The range appears in yards in the bottom portion of the heads-up display, and the units can be changed to meters. I\u2019ve found that this feature works flawlessly. No complaints here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space
Range can be shown in both meters and yards.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Windage and Holdover<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the binos have a range, they provide windage and holdover adjustments based on whatever firearm profile is currently selected. The binos can provide those adjustments for three different firearm profiles (A, B, or C), which is more than enough for any given hunt or range trip. In addition, users can swap out firearm profiles via the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users construct firearm profiles by inputting data like bullet speed, ballistic coefficient, scope height, and zero range. The built-in bullet library has hundreds of factory cartridge options to choose from, so unless you\u2019re using handloads, it\u2019s likely your favorite cartridge is already there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space
Here, the binos are recommending adjusting the reticle 2.3 milliradians up and 0.1 to the left.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Environmentals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fury includes on-board sensors that measure temperature, pressure, humidity, and elevation, and it automatically factors those variables when it produces the shot solution. Wind, however, is a different story. The Fury can be connected via Bluetooth to a Kestrel, which will provide additional environmental information, including wind. If you have a Kestrel, that\u2019s the simplest way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t have a Kestrel, you\u2019ll have to input wind information yourself. This can be done using one of two modes: Full Crosswind Mode or Wind Bearing Capture Mode. In Full Crosswind Mode, the Fury assumes the wind is coming from either the full 3 o\u2019clock or 9 o\u2019clock positions. Users enter the wind speed relative to those directions. So, if your target is at 12 o\u2019clock, and a 10mph wind is coming from 2 o\u2019clock, you\u2019d enter a 7(ish) mph wind coming from the 3 o\u2019clock position. This mode is designed for quick but less precise wind calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space
Range is measured by pressing “Measure” and wind direction is captured by pressing the button with the four dots at the top left corner of this photo.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In Wind Bearing Capture Mode, users can capture the exact direction of the wind, and the Fury calculates windage adjustments based on the direction of the target relative to the wind. Users face directly into the wind, press the \u201cwind bearing capture\u201d button, enter the wind speed, and go from there. This is the mode I used most frequently, and I found it to be super accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The need to enter wind speed manually makes the Fury AB not quite<\/em> as user-friendly as it might first appear. I realize this is ridiculously nit-picky. The fact that such a device exists in the commercial market is astounding, and it does virtually everything else you need it to do. But I found that entering wind is the most complicated component of using the Fury, so it\u2019s worth taking the time to practice before relying on the binos to make a critical shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Velocity on Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the features that hasn\u2019t received much attention, but it could be the Fury\u2019s most useful in the field. Along with providing windage and holdover adjustments, the Fury app\u2019s ballistics display calculates the velocity on impact and the energy on impact. For long-range work out West, this feature could be invaluable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most bullet manufacturers publish how fast a bullet must be travelling to reach full expansion. Federal\u2019s Trophy Copper line, for example, must be travelling at 1,800 fps on impact in order to reliably expand. Hunters can research ahead of time what their maximum effective range will be with any given bullet, but the Fury provides that information in the field in real time. Knowing (or being reminded) of a bullet\u2019s velocity on impact can give hunters the confidence they need to take an ethical shot\u2014or the info they need to pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Range<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In my mind, first-shot hits are the gold standard for a tool like the Fury AB. With so much data and computing power, these binos should be able to provide exact adjustments for any cartridge and environmental situation. As long as the shooter does his or her job and the firearm functions properly, I expect to land shots on target at any reasonable distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space
The Fury AB also comes with a harness.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I had a chance to test the Fury\u2019s functionality at Texas Tactical Training Center<\/a> here in East Texas. My goal was simple: land the first shot within the kill zone of a large steel animal (about 18\u201d) on the first shot at the 600 and 700-yard targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the Fury\u2019s range-finding function, I realized that the targets were at precisely 615 and 720 yards. The Fury calculated holdover based on that data along with all the other environmental meters in the binos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wind wasn\u2019t in my favor. It was gusting between 5 and 20mph, and it was coming from about 10:30\u2014not quite a headwind, but pretty close. When I inputted this data into the Fury, it didn\u2019t recommend any windage adjustments. On my own, I would have estimated at least a little bullet movement, but I went with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first shot at 615 yards hit the man-sized target about three inches to the right of my point of aim, and my first shot at 720 yards hit about four inches to the right. Both hits were well within the kill zone of any large North American game animal, and they would have done the job on deer, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Space<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Space
This was a first-shot hit on a 12″ by 12″ target from 720 yards.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I call that a success, especially considering the fact that I was shooting the new Springfield Model 2020 for only the second time in my life. I had done a little cartridge testing, and I knew the velocities for each load, but I was unfamiliar with the rifle. Left to my own devices (literally, like three different devices), I doubt I would have gotten on target so quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can achieve the functionality of the Vortex Fury AB without spending $2,000. You can purchase a cheaper set of binos along with a range finder, barometer, altimeter, thermometer, and a humidity gauge. You can pair those gauges with a wind meter and a ballistics calculator and get to more or less the same place as the Fury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you\u2019ll have to switch back and forth between your binos and your range finder and manually enter all the environmental data. When you\u2019re on a once-in-a-lifetime hunting trip, and your target animal is five seconds from walking into the tree line, you need windage and holdover information in short order. The Vortex Fury HB 5000 AB can give you that info, and I guarantee you won\u2019t be thinking about the price tag when you walk up to that trophy animal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
