The Vortex Crossfire II 2-7x32 Crossbow Kit (XBR-2 MOA reticle) is a scope designed specifically for hunting crossbows, although it shares the robust Crossfire II platform. Its key feature is that it is calibrated to compensate for arrow drop at various distances and speeds.
Optical and Physical Specifications
- Magnification: 2–7x (the zoom synchronizes with the arrow speed to adjust the drop points).
- Objective lens diameter: 32 mm.
- Tube diameter: 30 mm (unlike standard rifle versions, which typically use a 1-inch tube, this 30 mm tube offers greater robustness and a wider field of view).
- Focal Plane: Second Focal Plane (SFP), meaning the reticle size remains constant across all magnifications.
- Eye relief: 68.5 mm (2.7 inches), optimized for the crossbow shooting position.
- Parallax: Fixed at 75 yards (~68.5 meters).
- Weight: 397 grams (14 oz).
- Length: 24.13 cm (9.5 inches), very compact.
XBR-2 Reticle (MOA) and Illumination
- Purpose-built design: The XBR-2 reticle is calibrated for an initial 40-yard zero and features etched holdover reference marks from 20 to 100 yards
- Illumination: Dual red or green illumination with multiple intensity levels, ideal for quick target acquisition at dawn or dusk.
Turrets and Adjustments
- Turret type: Low-profile capped.
- Adjustment increment: 1/2 MOA per click.
- Maximum adjustment (Elevation / Windage): 160 MOA / 160 MOA.
