secretagentmole Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hawke Nite Eye, SR12! Got one and it is a superb scope. With an accurate chrono reading and Chairgun, you will be amazed at what you can do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 forget chairgun, you need to shoot the thing to plot the trajectory, hold and windages. Never will be a substitute. I have looked through loads of Hawke scopes never rated any (though not familular with model codes etc). For me if you can find one it would be a leupold EFR secondhand for that money. EFR means extended focal range BTW (works well close up as well as longer rimfire / centrefire ranges). another good find at higher mag is the 8-32 Burris rimfire/airgun (discontinued maybee 5yrs or so ago but you can still find them s/h) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 You get secondhand leupolds come up on here for less than that, I'd have a search through the other sales se what there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peek-at Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 for air guns I wouldnt recommend that you spend that much. You can get a really good quality budget scope for about £70. The Nikko Stirlings are such a scope & I cant fault them.... Have a look at the below link.... JS RAMSBOTTOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggy22 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 i've got MTC mambas 4 x16 on both my guns, ifind them both very good . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhw100 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Another nod for MTC although hawke scopes are good for their price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 MTC have had a few problems reported recently with white out, not something you want with a scope, which is why I recommended Hawke, much more reliable optically! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggy22 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Another nod for MTC although hawke scopes are good for their price. Hi secret, Which hawk would u recommend ? pref one with i/r n half mill dots also 4 x16 ish . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benn Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 mtc mamba lite good enough for air rifle ranges and has half mil dot reticle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaikalsRule90 Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 i use a Hawke Sport HD 3x9x50, good scope that can handle being knocked about in the back of the truck, and will only set you back about £60, though there are loads around that sort of price range that would more than suit your needs..nikko sterling,simmonds, leapers, tasco to name a few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiedenny Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Mtc scopes if you get on with them, hawke are also great. Had lots of nikko sterling and they are poor, they also are the only scopes I have had that developed faults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay222 Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 A fixed 7x50 falcon menace would be good on an airgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 I got a Falcon Menace 10x42 scope on my AAS410 and it's a good value for money scope!Very happy with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robp50 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 try an ags 3-9 x50 they are pretty much bullitt proof (scuse the pun ) but you will get one for less than 80 quid and then with the rest of your budget get yourself a decent bipod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
