Vortex Viper HD 5-25x50 Scope with VMR-3 MRAD Reticle | Second Focal Plane

Rugged versatility for long-range shooting

The Vortex Viper HD 5-25x50 is built around a robust 30 mm main tube and offers a wide 5x zoom range that adapts from fast-on-ground engagements to distant precision shots. The illuminated second focal plane reticle stays visible when light fades, without overpowering the scene in bright conditions.

In the field, you’ll notice the quick-access controls that matter most: a fast-focus eyepiece for a sharp reticle and a side parallax knob for rapid distance adjustment. The VMR-3 reticle unlocks long-range capabilities, helping you with ranging, holdovers, windage corrections, and leads, while a fine center crosshair maintains precision even as lighting shifts.

Optical clarity is designed to impress. The HD optical system uses select glass elements to minimize chromatic aberration, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness, strong color fidelity, and enhanced light transmission so you can trust what you see across the spectrum of lighting conditions.

The build emphasizes field reliability. The exposed locking elevation with the RevStop Zero System provides a quick, repeatable return to zero, and capped windage helps guard against accidental adjustments. Exterior lenses receive Armortek coatings for scratch resistance, while argon purging ensures fogproof and waterproof performance in rugged environments.

Warranty and reliability go hand in hand. The Viper HD is backed by Vortexs VIP Warranty, a transferable promise to repair or replace should something go wrong, so you can focus on the task at hand with greater confidence.

Real-world use cases span varmint control, long-range target practice, and field conditions where light can be inconsistent. With its combination of versatility, durability, and precise optics, this scope is designed to support shooters who value clarity, control, and consistency in the field.
