Crossfire II 3-12X56 AO Hog Hunter Riflescope (CF2-31049)
Specifically designed for discriminating hunters and shooters, the Crossfire II series of riflescopes offer the highest levels of performance and reliability. Our mission-specific Crossfire II Hog Hunter riflescope excels when hunting in the lowest light, from early evening to the first glimmer of dawn.
Thanks to fully multi-coated optics with anti-reflective coatings, a 30 mm tube and over-sized 56 mm objective lens, hard-core hog hunters can now place shots in heavy cover with the utmost confidence when light conditions are at their worst. The hard anodized single-piece aircraft-grade aluminum tube is nitrogen purged and o-ring sealed for waterproof and fogproof performance.
With versatile 3-12x magnification and a rugged build to withstand hard use, the Hog Hunter is one tough customer. Dual use for Shooting Tactical/Hunting.
V-Brite Illuminated MOA Reticle
- Uses the V-Plex format along with battery-powered electronics to illuminate the center dot for better low-light performance. Good for hunters/shooters during extra-low light conditions.
- Illuminated center dot provides a precise aiming point under low-light conditions.
- Second focal plane (SFP) reticles are located near the scope’s eyepiece behind the image erecting and magnifying lenses. This style of reticle does not visually change in size when you change the magnification. The advantage of an SFP reticle is that it always maintains the same appearance. Listed reticle subtensions used for estimating range, holdover, and wind drift correction are only accurate at one particular magnification.

Giving this five stars because I think the quality of the scope far exceeds the price. At this price you can’t beat the quality and clarity. Even at full zoom it’s crisp and focused all the way to the edges of the glass. My only gripe is that the illumination control knob is in the way of your vision if you need to take a quick glance over the scope but I knew that would be the case when I bought it, no big deal. I highly recommend this if you’re putting together a budget rifle that you want dependable optics on.

This 1-4x24 optic is clear, simple, and effective. The red dot illumination is not very bright. It does not compete with a dedicated red dot for brightness, but it’s not meant to. The reticle is simple and familiar. The optic has great eye relief and target acquisition is fast and straight forward. Note if you plan to mount a high red dot or holographic on top of your scope mount, using something like a Burris P.E.P.R the illumination turret is very tall and sits high on top of the scope, making it nearly impossible to acquire a top mount red dot sight picture. To run a secondary red dot, you’ll need a 45 degree offset mount. Aside from this, the optic is great. Not amazing in low light conditions, but still functional. The illuminated red dot washes out in sunny conditions, but the reticle can be run without illumination, and presents like a standard crosshair. Very close to a true 1x, a great for CQB. Turret adjustment has a positive click feel, but not a positive click sound. No biggie though. Holds zero well, and if you have a hunting background, you’ll feel very comfortable with this reticle. No frills, no complicated reticle, no unnecessary magnification. Only wish it had a lower illumination turret, was a little lighter, and a quick throw lever. But for a sub-$200 optic, I have zero complaints.

Vortex Optics are the best in my mind for the money. Quality construction and great field of vision to use on the range or when hunting. Adjustable crosshairs allow you to get the scope on target easily.

The only thing I was disappointed in was the lighted dot reticle. When using in low light, even on low, the light reflects on the lens making it very hard to see the target/animal.Other than that very clear!!!!! Excellent scope for 500 yards or less with a flat shooting load.

Mein zweites Glas von Vortex. Gestochen scharfes und helles Bild bei jeder Vergrößerung. Warum es 11 Helligkeitsstufen gibt weiß ich nicht. Selbst in der hellsten Einstellung ist der rote Punkt auf dem gut beleuchtetem Schießstand kaum zu erkennen. Ist bestimmt im Wald bei der Drückjagd besser. Für ein chinesisches Glas ganz in Ordnung.

I normally don't write reviews on product but I wanted to put something out there on the the Vortex Crossfire II because the only positive reviews I could find were on Amazon. A majority of Vortex reviews only point towards the Viper PST when considering a 1-4x scope which is listed on Amazon ranging between $449 to $462. Of the scarce reviews I could find on Crossfire, people downplayed the scope because it is made in China and considered it the lowest quality. While this may true, looking through the Crossfire, Nikon M223, Nikon P223, and other $200-$350 range 1-4x scopes, I felt the eye relief and glass was pretty good on the Crossfire.My purpose for buying this was range shooting from 50-200 yards on a spikes tactical home built AR. After a couple of minutes I was zeroed in at 50 and moved my way up to 100 and 200 yards. I can tell you firsthand the optic performed exceptionally well and I had no issues at all while shooting. The V-Brite illumination itself is low and barely visible on the highest setting during the day but that did not concern me. I bought the V-Brite version after looking at youtube reviews on 1-4x scopes because as one video said "when I turn my illuminated reticle on out there in the cold wilderness, its a good feeling". While the illuminated reticle is hardly visible during the day, at night it is just right. - youtube Best AR-15 Scopes by Nutnfance for a great breakdown on scopes and price range depending on your budget.I couldn't justify buying a $400+ variable optic even if it is made in Germany, Japan, Philippines, or any other preferred country outside of China. Some shooting and optics forums will tell you that its a waste to buy anything made in China or anything under $500 for a scope/red dot. Personally, if you are only hunting or range shooting, the value should be what is the best bang for buck. I think Vortex does just that with the Crossfire II.Pro's:-Variable scope magnification-Clear glass with little to no fish eye at 1x magnification-Great eye relief-Able to shoot close range and holdovers for 200-250 yards-Visible illumination at night-Great manufacturers warranty-Reliable company which stands behind its productsCon'sCaps for the scopeDon't be fooled into thinking you need the very best scope when it isn't practical. Take baby steps and get familiar with lower to mid-range priced optics before you decide to go for the top end models. That way you're basing it off of personal experience and knowledge that works for you. The Vortex Crossfire II is a really solid scope and will suffice all your needs.

The crossfire 2 is what I would say to be a great multi purpose scope. Its price is perfect for me and the quality is all there. The brightness knob is good for lower light settings, for me the scope is perfect for hog hunting at dusk, early morning or a cloudy day. If you want to get into three gun competitions, this is also the way to go in my mind. 4x magnification is exactly that, so don't expect anything super blown up in the scope over 100-150 yards even if you have great eyes, the scope was meant to server its purpose. Also the glass is great, super crisp and the reticle is easy on the eyes, and the dot doesn't get hazy at all through out any brightness setting. Simply put, I'd rather get my foot into the door with the crossfire 2 instead of the 500 dollar PST viper, which has the same magnification max at 4x and is $200 more. It does have more brightness settings and readily adjustable rings for the windage and elevation, but I'm not shooting past 100 yards so I really don't need to be able to adjust them immediately, I just zero it in at 100 and I'm good. In addition, I use this scope on my AR15 pistol chambered in 7.62 x 39. It held on perfectly and its still intact with no loss of zero. LASTLY, vortex does not make a throw lever for this scope. However, the same throw lever meant for the viper pst (SV-1 throw lever) actually works on the crossfire 2, even though it doesn't have the teeth to grip the metal magnification rings of the newer metal ringed scopes. Don't believe me? I attached a picture of the lever after it went through a tac course and a picture with groups at 75 yards.
