RETICL E Reticle MOA and MRAD Adjustments Reticle Focal Plane Depending on which version you have purchased, your Razor HD riflescope will feature adjustments and reticles scaled in MOAs or mrads. Both minute-of-angle (MOA) and milliradian (mrad) unit of arc scales are equally effective when ranging or adjusting riflescope for bullet trajectory. All riflescope reticles can be termed either first focal plane (FFP) or second focal plane (SFP), depending upon their internal location within the riflescope.
RETICL E Riflescope Adjustments Variable Power Adjustments Reticle Focus To change magnifications, turn the magnification ring to the desired level. Vortex Razor HD riflescopes use a fast focus eyepiece designed to quickly and easily adjust the focus on the riflescope’s reticle. Adjust the magnification. To adjust the reticle focus: 1. Look through the riflescope at a blank white wall or up at the sky. 2. Turn focus knob fully outward. External Rotation Indicator 3.
RETICL E Locking Side Illumination Control Image Focus and Parallax Correction The Vortex Razor HD riflescopes use a variable intensity reticle illumination system to aid in low light performance. Integrated on the side focus dial for easy access, the illumination can be set and locked at your preferred setting. The Razor HD Gen II riflescopes feature a side focus dial which should be used to fine-tune the image focus. When the image is sharply focused, parallax error will also be eliminated.
RETICL E L-TECTM Turrets Adjusting the L-TEC Turrets for Bore and Range Sighting This Razor HD Gen II riflescope features the fast, accurate, easily-read L-TEC elevation and windage turrets Elevation Dial with integrated locking mechanisms preventing accidental adjustments. The turrets feature the L-TEC zero stop which provides a reliable return to the original zero when long distance shots have been dialed. Note: The turrets will allow a slight over travel (1/2 mrad or 1.
RETICL E Steps for Bore Sighting and Range Sighting Be sure the L-TEC turret caps are correctly positioned with the 0 mark on the turret cap indexed to the reference line on the turret body (see page 11). 1. Loosen the turret top cover with a coin or screwdriver to reveal the circular scale on the top of the turret. 2. Use the wrench to loosen three set screws located on cap perimeters. Riflescope Mounting To get the best performance from your Vortex Razor HD riflescope, proper mounting is essential.
RETICL E Eye Relief and Reticle Alignment Bore Sighting After installing the bottom ring halves on the mounting base, place the riflescope on the bottom ring halves and loosely install the upper ring halves. Before tightening the scope ring screws, adjust for maximum eye relief to avoid injury from recoil: Initial bore sighting of the riflescope will save time and money at the range.
RETICL E Final Range Sight-In Maintenance After the riflescope has been bore-sighted, final sight-in should be done at the range using the exact ammunition expected to be used while shooting. Sight in and zero the riflescope at the preferred distance. 100 yards is the most common zero distance, although a 200 yard zero may be preferred for long range applications.
RETICL E Troubleshooting The VIP Warranty Sighting-in Problems We build optics based on our commitment to your absolute satisfaction. That’s why Vortex products are unconditionally guaranteed and we make this Very Important Promise to you—a Very Important Person. Many times, problems thought to be with the scope are actually mount problems. Be sure the mounts are tight to the rifle and the scope is secured so it doesn’t twist or move in the rings.
