Vortex Gen II 3x & 5x Spitfire HD prism scopes. I have several of their original scopes that I’m very fond of. They  are great for shooters with astigmatism.  My only gripe about these new scopes is that they now only have the red reticle, no green. The 5x has a removable plate for a red dot. I’ll be mounting a Holosun 507 green on it.

I have 1 of their older model Spitfire 3x on my .300 AAC-great out to 100 yards for most anything in the 3 inch target size.

They don't even list the older models any longer-seems to me they ended them this model year.

Let us know how you like them after a little use.

I would be game for the 5x but the expense is quite a bit more than they were.

Euro Optic and Optics planet had them on sale over the weekend. They were listed at around $150 off msrp.  It could be their regular prices, but I jumped on them because I like the Vortex optics.

I'm trying to decide what optic to put on my m4 for 3 gun. What will be your intended use of the 3X and 5X Spitfires?

I’m putting the 3x on a 300BO because both scopes have the 1moa dot and broken circle for close quarters, and the subtensions allow for longer distances. I’m putting the 5x on my M&P10 to replace an old Nikon Monarch.
