Vortex Razor HD Gen II-E with VMR-2 MOA reticle for precision shooting at extended range.

Product Description
The Vortex Razor HD Gen II-E VMR-2 MOA is a first-focal-plane riflescope designed for precision rifle applications where holdover accuracy matters at every magnification setting.
This optic delivers the resolution and reticle subtensions serious long-range shooters need. The VMR-2 reticle uses MOA-based holdovers, giving you precise wind and elevation references without math in the field.
First focal plane means the reticle scales with magnification. Your holdovers stay true whether you dial up for target identification or dial down for field of view.
Key Facts
- Model: Vortex Razor HD Gen II-E
- SKU: RZR-16010
- Reticle: VMR-2 MOA
- Brand: Vortex
Why First Focal Plane Matters for MOA Reticles
In a first-focal-plane scope, the reticle grows and shrinks along with the target as you adjust magnification. That means every hash mark on the VMR-2 represents the same angular measurement regardless of your power setting.
If you range a target and dial to a mid-power setting for mirage or field of view, your holdovers remain accurate. Second focal plane scopes require you to use one specific magnification or recalculate your holds.
MOA-based reticles like the VMR-2 pair naturally with MOA turret adjustments, so your dial corrections and your holdovers speak the same language. Most American shooters already think in MOA, and this setup keeps the entire system consistent.
What the VMR-2 MOA Reticle Offers
The VMR-2 is a Christmas-tree style reticle with stacked windage references below the center crosshair. Each horizontal line gives you hold points for both elevation drop and wind drift at the same time.
This design speeds up follow-up shots on steel or multiple targets at different ranges. You hold rather than dial, and you keep the target in view instead of losing it while you adjust turrets.
The MOA spacing provides finer granularity than mil-based reticles when you need to split the difference on a hold. For hunters and PRS shooters who work in yards and inches, MOA makes the mental math faster.
Pairing the Razor HD Gen II-E with Precision Rifles
This scope is built for rifles where accuracy matters more than weight. Think bolt-action precision guns in 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Winchester, or 6mm Creedmoor, and gas guns purpose-built for long range rather than fighting.
You will need a quality mount with enough height to clear a 56mm objective bell if that is the tube diameter on your model, and enough eye relief to keep your face off the charging handle under recoil. Call us at 817-393-4000 to confirm mounting specs for your rifle.
The Gen II-E series sits between entry-level tactical scopes and the top-tier competition glass. It brings most of the optical performance serious shooters need without the cost of the absolute flagship models. Browse our full riflescope inventory to compare options in this category.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does Gen II-E mean in the Vortex Razor HD line?
A: Gen II-E refers to a specific generation and variant within the Vortex Razor HD family. The “E” designation distinguishes this model from other Gen II configurations, but the exact feature set should be confirmed by calling 817-393-4000 before purchase.
Q: Is the VMR-2 reticle illuminated?
A: Most Razor HD Gen II scopes include reticle illumination, but we recommend confirming this feature and the brightness settings for this exact model by calling us at 817-393-4000.
Q: What rings or mount do I need for the Razor HD Gen II-E?
A: The correct ring height and diameter depend on the tube size and objective lens diameter of this model, plus your rifle’s rail height and stock dimensions. Call 817-393-4000 so we can recommend a mount that provides proper eye relief and clearance for your setup.
Q: How does MOA compare to MRAD for long-range shooting?
A: MOA and MRAD are both angular measurements that work equally well for precision shooting. MOA offers finer granularity per click, with one MOA equaling roughly one inch per hundred yards. MRAD uses base-ten math, which some shooters find faster. Choose the system that matches your turrets and the way you already calculate drops.
Q: Can I use this scope for hunting and competition both?
A: Yes, first-focal-plane scopes with Christmas-tree reticles work for both applications. Hunters benefit from fast holdovers on uneven terrain, and competitors use the same reticle for rapid engagements on steel. The main trade-off is weight compared to a lighter hunting scope.
Q: Do you offer gunsmithing services for scope mounting in Roanoke?
A: Yes, Western Sport has an on-site gunsmith and can mount and level your optic. Call 817-393-4000 to discuss your rifle and schedule service at our Roanoke location in North Texas.
