Clear images and hard to believe long-distance ranging capabilities are the cornerstones of Vortex’s Fury HD 5000 10x42 Rangefinding binocular.

Lightweight, durable, clear and fast-ranging to 5,000 yards are deliverables in the new Fury HD 5000. Precise distance readings are displayed with .1 increment accuracy out to 999.9 yards. The Fury HD 5000 is a natural choice for long-range hunters wanting immediate readouts and information for follow-up shots.

An illuminated right barrel display can be set to yards or meters, and provides angle-compensated, as well as line-of-sight modes to match user preference and application with single hand control. The Fury 5000 HD’s Scan mode gives readings as you pan or track moving targets. The Last Mode feature gives the range reading of the object farthest away, where your target may be obscured.

Dialectic fully multi-coated prisms and XR fully multicoated HD lenses ensure clear objects, even in low light. The binocular is rubber armored, and uses a center focus wheel and left eye diopter to ensure optimal image focus.

The Fury HD 5000 Rangefinding binocular has an MSRP of $1,599. For more information, visit vortexoptics.com.

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
