Vortex Crossfire HD 4-12x44 Riflescope - Illuminated BDC - 1 Inch

The Vortex Crossfire HD 4-12x44 with Illuminated Dead-Hold 2A BDC reticle extends the proven Crossfire HD platform to a 4-12x magnification range with an adjustable parallax from 15 yards to infinity — a second focal plane hunting and range scope with an HD optical system, fully multi-coated lenses, illuminated floating center dot for low-light confidence, and 70 MOA of total elevation and windage travel in a 1-inch aircraft-grade aluminum tube.

The Vortex Crossfire HD 4-12x44 Illuminated (CFR-41201I) is a second focal plane riflescope with a 4-12x magnification range, 44mm objective lens, and 1-inch tube, featuring the Illuminated Dead-Hold 2A BDC reticle with MOA holdovers. Specs: eye relief 3.8", FOV 26.9–8.6 ft at 100 yds, 1/4 MOA adjustments, 15 MOA per rotation, 70 MOA max elevation and windage, adjustable parallax 15 yds to infinity. Weight: 21.5 oz. Length: 13.4". HD optical system, fully multi-coated, fast-focus eyepiece, waterproof/fogproof/shockproof.

The 4-12x magnification range extends the Crossfire HD's practical upper limit from 9x to 12x — meaningful for the varmint hunting, predator hunting, and longer-range target shooting applications where 9x leaves the shooter wanting more detail at distance. The 44mm objective provides more light-gathering area than the 40mm version, supporting the higher magnification settings and contributing to image brightness at the top of the range. The adjustable parallax is the specification that most distinguishes this model from the fixed-parallax 3-9x40 variant: the fixed 3-9x parallax is set at 100 yards, which is accurate and appropriate for most hunting distances, but at 12x magnification on targets at 50 or 200 yards, parallax error becomes visible — the reticle appears to move relative to the target when the shooter shifts their eye position, introducing aiming error that is not present at the parallax-free distance. The 15-yards-to-infinity adjustment allows the shooter to eliminate parallax at the actual target distance, maintaining point-of-aim consistency across the full magnification range. The Illuminated Dead-Hold 2A BDC reticle pairs holdover and wind reference marks calibrated for common centerfire trajectories with an illuminated floating center dot that provides a fast, precise aiming point in low-light conditions — useful at dawn, dusk, and in heavy shade where a black reticle disappears against dark backgrounds. The HD optical system with fully multi-coated lenses maximizes light transmission and edge-to-edge sharpness. Capped turrets protect 1/4 MOA click adjustments. Fast-focus eyepiece allows quick reticle diopter adjustment.

Magnification: 4-12x. Objective: 44mm. Tube: 1 inch. Focal plane: second. Reticle: Illuminated Dead-Hold 2A BDC (MOA). Eye relief: 3.8". FOV: 26.9–8.6 ft at 100 yds. Adjustments: 1/4 MOA, 15 MOA/rotation, 70 MOA max elevation and windage. Parallax: adjustable 15 yds to infinity. Weight: 21.5 oz. Length: 13.4". Construction: aircraft-grade aluminum, HD optical system, fully multi-coated, waterproof/fogproof/shockproof.

Adjustable parallax from 15 yards to infinity eliminates parallax error at the actual target distance — critical at 12x magnification where fixed-parallax scopes show visible reticle shift off the parallax-free distance. 44mm objective supports light transmission at the 12x upper magnification setting. Illuminated floating center dot provides fast, precise aiming in low-light conditions where a black reticle disappears. HD optical system with fully multi-coated lenses maximizes edge-to-edge clarity.

The right riflescope for hunters and range shooters who want the Crossfire HD's HD glass and BDC holdover system with adjustable parallax and 12x upper magnification — illuminated reticle, 44mm objective, and 70 MOA adjustment range in a 1-inch aircraft aluminum tube.
