Pros & Cons
Pros
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. It is a long scope which i like.

Leopold vx freedom has an adjustable objective and the reticle is very clear at 2nd focal plane use. The elevation turret is marked with numbers. The scope has a great feature which is adjustable turrets to zero.

Highlights
Quality
My first vortex and i'm really impressed with the quality.
The glass quality is crystal clear, bright and very sharp even at full magnification.
I prefer a scope with the objective turret focus.

Price
This scope is an all around good deal, quality, price.
This scope definitely exceeded my expectations for the price i paid for it.

Packaging/appearance
It was pretty close to start with right out of the box.
Competitiveness

I mounted it using a monstrum cantilever mount, and a little blue loctite to keep everything tight.
Son bought this for his wife’s gun.
I would reccomend this scope for the average shooter.
