Vortex Optics Viper HD Spotting Scopes

I have been casually shopping for a scope for about a year. I sampled them every time I was in a sporting goods store or a friend brought one along. I'm glad I waited. You can't beat this scope. You can spend twice the price and get performance that is only discernable with great effort and sophisticated measurement equipment. I use this at the range and in the woods observing wildlife. A perfect combination of large objective, reasonable weight, and nice price point.

This scope is better than the other scopes at the rifle range. You get a very clear and well magnified image. The glass lenses have a very low bubble density.

I will use this for hunting. it's clear/sharp far beyond my expectation i paired it with a vortex tripod very solid combination. it's probably not for backpacking weight wise . way ahead of the curve with price vs clarity great glass for the money. unconditional lifetime warranty on scope and tripod win win.

Extremely clear view. Great solid build. Easy to use.

Vortex is a brand we are very familiar with and this seller did an amazing job of quickly shipping us a wonderful product. It was a surprise for my husband for his birthday and he is extremely happy!

Spotting scopes are always going to be pricey. Anything under $1,000 doesn't get much better than this. You also get a lifetime warranty! My only qualm is that the eye-piece is not interchangeable, not even with other Viper eye-pieces. Sometimes its nice to upgrade your scope a bit after you've played around with it.

Rare - a quality product that doesn’t break the bank. Captured detail as well as, if not better than, the Razor

The media could not be loaded. This scope is GREAT! I’m gonna be using it for some Moose and Black bear hunting next year in Alaska. The photos you see are of the front scope glare shroud and the eye shroud. I wear glasses and have noticed that using the eye shroud doesn’t help. But! My brother in law who does not wear glasses says it helps a lot. The build quality is top notch and the sleeve it came with will help protect it while walking through the brush. I also provided photos of the zoom on the scope looking from my driveway to the peak of pioneer peak in Palmer Alaska at 20x, 30x, 40x, and 60x zoom. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND This scope :)
