## Description

desertcart.com : Vortex Optics Crossfire II Dead Hold BDC Reticle Riflescope, 3-9x40, Black (CF2-31007) : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Very clear glass - Not top of the line, but nowhere near the bottom either. Really good glass quality, will be buying again. I have bought a few of the "sniper" cheap azz scopes, but never again. This is a very good scope for the price. Holds zero very well, eye relief is great once set up. I have a nikon scope about the same price, but is nowhere near the quality of this one.
Review: Vortex Optics Crossfire II Second Focal Plane, 1 - inch Tube Riflescopes - Excellent scope with fixed parallax at 100 yards. Clear lenses, nice, precise radicals. Absolutely worth of buying. How ever it doesn't work for me, reason being, I need it on my break barrel air gun rifle and all my targets are 30 - 50 yards. I'm not returning this Scope, I might need it for other rifle I have.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this scope come with flip up scope covers? If not, any recommendations?**
A: The scope does not come with flip up scope covers. I purchased Butler Creek ones and they work great. For the eye piece go with size 14-15-16 (their sizing is weird) and for the objective  go with 13-15. They work great and I have no complaints.

**Q: Is it good in dark areas**
A: Me owning both a 44mm and a 50mm I’d say if you want one for lower light go 50mm.  I’ve heard that it doesn’t matter but like I said i have both.. the 50mm you can see earlier in the morning and later into the night.. only down side is if your facing a sun rise or a sun down the 50mm absorbs to much light causing a glare.. you can buy a screw in extender that takes care of that tho.. hope That helped

**Q: will this scope hold up to the pounding of the AK47 recoil**
A: This is an amazing scope. Like the others have said handling a 416 rigby and a 338 win mag itll hold up to the 7.62x39 for sure. I know ur thinking probably about the continual jarring of a semi automatic but this scope holds up just fine. Best thing is u cant go wrong with vortexes warranty. I have two a 2-7x32 on my 375 HH, and a 3-9x40 on my .30.06, and only had one issue on the 3-9x40 from a shooting trip after i got it home i guess it got knocked around too hard and there was like dirt  inside of the glass. I called vortex they sent me a sgipping label and said well fix it ir replace it and in a week or two i got my scope back good as new.  I love vortex the scopes are great, and the customer service cant be beat.

**Q: What type of crosshairs does it have?**
A: It has a duplex crosshairs, with the addition of three ballistic-drop-compensating (BDC) hash marks on the bottom part of the reticle.   The hash marks are located at 1.5, 4.5 and 7.5 minutes of angle below the center.   If you find the bullet drop for your cartridge with a given zero point, the BDC hashes will show you where to hold for longer ranges.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome Budget Rifle Scope - very clear optic and great eye relief
*by S***E on December 13, 2020*

4-12x40 AO Scope = First, you are not going to be looking through the "soda straw" effect with this scope. It has great eye relief of about 4 inches and a great eye view quality of very minimal scope black eye ring in your sight picture. You get a great view with full image at low and high power in this scope. It has an Adjustable Objective and the reticle is very clear at 2nd focal plane use. It is to be used at 12x and if you are going to use that BDC, you need to be prone or in a very, very stable shooting platform position while at 12x to use this BDC. The turrets are fine and are capped. I do not trust them for dialing up and down MOA. There are box tests I have seen where they performed fine but this isn't a $1000 scope. This is a budget hunting scope with a nice BDC that can be used for ranging mixed with a ballistic calculator for holdovers and doping the wind out to what I consider 500 yards use. It has more than enough magnification for that and I have taken mine out to proof it shooting steel rams at 500 yards with no issues off my bipods. I ballistic computer matched the reticle with an accurate handload and it is good out to 600yds on my rifle. If you are just shooting to 400yds, I recommend the 3-9x40 BDC Crossfire II scope for hunting. If you are shooting varmints or shooting out to 500yds, the 4-12x40 AO is what I recommend. The Vortex Crossfire II is a budget hunting scope that would fit nice on a Savage Axis / Ruger American Rifle for a budget rifle optic. I've attached some BDC information on this scope to look at the values. This is great budget glass for a budget rifle setup. If you are shooting 500 yards and under, this is really all you need. If you are going past 500yds, you need a better quality scope for dialing the scope turrets / wind values, custom rifle, handloads, etc. more time & $$$$.
