Vortex Razor HD 27-60×85 Angled Spotting Scope
The Vortex Razor HD 27-60×85 Angled is the flagship of Vortex’s spotting scope range, built for deer stalkers, long-range shooters and wildlife watchers who need to resolve fine detail at real distance. A triplet apochromatic lens made from high-density, extra-low dispersion glass, combined with XRPlus fully multi-coated optics and dielectric-coated Porro prisms, delivers bright, high-contrast, colour-accurate images with minimal chromatic aberration.
The 27-60x zoom on an 85mm objective gives a linear field of view of 117ft at 27x narrowing to 68ft at 60x (both at 1000 yards), with close focus down to 4.9m and eye relief of 17mm to 16.7mm for comfortable use with or without spectacles. The 45-degree angled body keeps the mounting height low for extra stability in wind and allows relaxed viewing.

Paul Harris –
I use this spotting scope for deer hunting and it performs exceptionally well. The image clarity at long distances is outstanding, especially in low light. The 45-degree angle helps keep the scope stable when mounted on a tree stand. The zoom range is very useful for tracking animals at different distances.
Carolyn Kerr –
The color accuracy is impressive. I noticed very little chromatic aberration even at 60x. The eye relief is comfortable, and I can use it without glasses. The build quality feels solid and durable.
Melanie Langdon –
Great for wildlife observation. The zoom range allows me to adjust quickly between close and distant targets. A bit heavy for extended handheld use, but stable when mounted.
