Has anyone used this scope for hunting?  Is this scope good enough for hunting in the mountains (i.e.: for viewing 1/2 to 1.5 mile for mule deer).

It is excellent for those uses and distances.  I have used it for exactly that.

Have you BB, or anyone had a chance to look through the new vortex razor 50mm scopes?

I haven't personally, but know a few owners, one that compared it side-by-side with the ED50.  He said it was a close call on image, but gave the Vortex the edge.  He did note short eye relief though.
