shooting long

I agree with you both if you are only shooting upto 40m and I have a Hark sidewinder on my logun gladiator and thinking of replacing with a .25 fac FX bobcat and I have a schmidte and bender PM II on a FX royal 500 but I use both gun at very different ranges and a massive price difference between the two. So as I said before... Scope choice is a personal thing and you need to try them on your or a similar rifle before you buy. I had the good fortune of trying the schmidte and bender when I was in the forces on a l96 a1 and even though I love the FFP and the scope it'self I didn't like the price! The Hark is a fantastic scope and we'll worth your hard earned cash www.deben.com for the Hark or for a look at schmidte and bender and a very wide range of scopes wwwyorkguns.com

As you zoom in on a second focal plane scope the aim point changes because the reticle is not magnifyed. So as your target appears larger the more you zoom in the distance between the aim points, mils MOA doesn't change. So if you look at FFP scopes the cross and mils get larger the more you zoom so your adjustment for hold over, under and wind never change no matter what your zoom. Also makes making you range card essay and makes you more confident on shot placement Glynn

I don't want to teach you guys to suck eggs and I am new to the forum but I have shot fire arms and air gun for years. Scope choice is a personal thing and even though I very much agree the side winder is a very good scope I would have a look at FFP (first focal plane) scopes because if you use the zoom on you scope through the full range you zero never changes due to the magnificent and FFP scopes are becoming more affordable Glynn
