Crimson Trace Hardline Pro
The Crimson Trace Hardline Pro 4-16x50 is designed for shooters who value precision and adaptability in their optics. Equipped with an illuminated CT Custom MR1-MOA reticle, this scope excels at both mid to long-range shooting, offering clear and reliable targeting on a second focal plane. The exposed turrets provide smooth, quick adjustments, while the parallax adjustment on the left side allows for precise target focus. I found the lightweight anodized aluminum construction durable and well-suited to varying field conditions, with multi-coated lenses that enhance clarity and reduce glare. At 25.4 ounces, the Hardline Pro is waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof, backed by Crimson Trace’s trusted lifetime warranty.
Vortex Razor HD LHT
The Vortex Razor HD LHT brings together lightweight design and high performance, ideal for hunters aiming to bridge the gap between mid- and long-range shots. Available in 4.5-22x50, this scope offers clarity with its HD optical system, even at higher magnifications. The Razor HD LHT’s locking elevation turret and side parallax adjustment ensure accuracy on demanding shots, while its illuminated reticle aids visibility in low-light conditions. Built with durability in mind, the scope’s rugged construction is both shockproof and waterproof. Despite the added features, it remains lightweight, reducing fatigue on those longer hunts. For hunters needing versatility without added bulk, the Vortex Razor HD LHT is a perfect match for the field.
