If you're a backcountry elk hunter, you need to have one of these in your backpack. It's light enough that you don't even notice it in your pack, and it gives you enough power and clarity to judge a bull across a big canyon.
The new Vortex Razor spotting scope has checked off a ton of boxes for me. Extremely lightweight, robust and durable, and quality glass are just a few of the aspects that I’ve come to love in Vortex’s newest offering!
I have been pretty impressed with this little spotter from brightness to edge-to-edge clarity. It doesn't quite hang with the high-end Swaro ATC but at the price point, it does more than just get the job done. The 13-39 magnification range feels ideal for the way I use a compact spotter. It's well-built and feels like it can stand up to a beating in your pack too.
