Vortex Razor HD GEN II H59 MRAD

Product Description

The Vortex Razor HD Gen II H59 MRAD is a riflescope built for long-range precision shooting. It features the H59 reticle calibrated in MRAD for fast range estimation and holdovers. This optic is designed for competitive shooters, tactical marksmen, and serious hunters who need repeatable adjustments and clear glass at distance.

The Razor HD Gen II platform delivers edge-to-edge clarity across the magnification range. The H59 reticle provides a grid-based reference system that simplifies wind calls and moving target leads without requiring complex mental math.

MRAD adjustment turrets match the reticle, keeping your corrections consistent whether you dial or hold. This system reduces errors when transitioning between known-distance and unknown-distance engagements.

Understanding the H59 MRAD Reticle System

The H59 is a grid-style reticle designed by Todd Hodnett for tactical and competition use. It features hash marks and numbered reference points throughout the field of view. Each increment represents one milliradian, which corresponds to 10 centimeters at 100 meters or 3.6 inches at 100 yards.

MRAD reticles simplify ballistic calculations because the unit of measure scales linearly with distance. If your bullet drops 4 MRAD at 600 yards, you hold 4 MRAD low or dial 4 MRAD up. The grid pattern in the H59 extends into all four quadrants, giving you holdover and windage references without cluttering the center.

This reticle suits shooters who engage multiple targets at varying distances without time to dial between shots. The visible grid lets you hold corrections quickly once you know your dope.

Choosing Between MRAD and MOA

The Vortex Razor HD Gen II is available in both MRAD and MOA configurations. MRAD (milliradian) and MOA (minute of angle) are both angular measurements, but they use different scales. One MRAD equals 3.44 MOA.

MRAD pairs naturally with metric range estimation and ballistic solvers that output in tenths of a mil. MOA integrates more easily with imperial measurements and traditional click values. Neither system is more accurate than the other; the choice depends on what your ballistic data uses and what you learned on.

If your shooting background is military or you use ballistic apps that default to MRAD output, this model keeps your entire system in one unit. Mixing units—such as an MRAD reticle with MOA turrets—creates opportunity for errors under time pressure.

What to Confirm Before Ordering

The Razor HD Gen II family includes multiple magnification ranges and reticle options. Verify that the H59 MRAD reticle and the magnification range fit your intended use before ordering. Call 817-393-4000 to confirm specifications, tube diameter, turret type, and what accessories or mounts you may need.

Long-range riflescopes require solid mounting systems. The tube diameter and ring height affect cheek weld, bore offset, and clearance over your rail. Western Sport can recommend compatible mounts and rings based on your rifle setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the Vortex Razor HD Gen II H59 MRAD and other Razor Gen II models?

A: The H59 MRAD model features the Horus H59 reticle with MRAD grid markings and MRAD turret adjustments. Other Razor Gen II models use different reticles such as the EBR-2C or EBR-7C and may be offered in MOA. The H59 is preferred for tactical applications and competition shooting where grid-based holdovers speed up engagements.

Q: Can I use the Vortex Razor HD Gen II H59 MRAD on a .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor rifle?

A: Yes, the Razor HD Gen II is suitable for any centerfire rifle cartridge including .308 Winchester and 6.5 Creedmoor. The MRAD adjustments and reticle scale work with any caliber once you develop your ballistic data. Ensure your rings and mount provide adequate clearance and that the magnification range fits your typical engagement distances.

Q: What rings or mount should I use with this riflescope?

A: The correct ring height and diameter depend on the tube size and your rifle’s rail height. Call 817-393-4000 to confirm tube diameter and receive recommendations for mounts that fit your specific rifle and shooting style. Proper mounting is critical for zero retention and eye relief.

Q: Is the Vortex Razor HD Gen II H59 MRAD covered by a warranty?

A: Vortex offers warranty coverage on their optics. For specific terms and the claims process, contact Vortex directly or call Western Sport at 817-393-4000 for guidance on warranty service and registration.

Q: How do I order the Vortex Razor HD Gen II H59 MRAD from Western Sport?

A: Call 817-393-4000 to place an order or request a special order if needed. Western Sport can answer questions about the riflescope, compatible accessories, and shipping. Our team in Roanoke, TX, handles FFL transfers and can coordinate delivery to your local dealer if you are outside the DFW area.

Q: Why would I choose MRAD over MOA for this riflescope?

A: MRAD is preferred when your ballistic solver or range finder outputs data in mils, or when you learned to shoot using the metric system. MRAD increments are slightly larger than MOA, which can make coarse adjustments faster. Choose MRAD if your entire system—reticle, turrets, and data—uses the same unit to avoid conversion mistakes during live fire.
