Jbob Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) Just a really quick question. Are theses scopes any good? I read good stuff online but unsure if they are any good or not. I have a budget that is limiting me to this end of the market so that's why I've been looking at these scopes.

browning123 Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 I've used the scopes - I would recommend paying a bit more and buy a Hawke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clakk Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Agree a very basic scope ,look on various airgun forums or in the free adds /gumtree ,Hawke are much better imho .my Richter is on my airpistol as its not much cop for distance work .There,s always second hand Hawkes up for resale when people upgrade or give up atb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Not sure what you are intending putting the scope on, but a good all rounder is the Nikko Sterling Mountmaster. I have used this scope on a .22LR and a .204 Ruger to good effect. As others have mentioned, Hawke scopes are good and some carry a ten year warranty.

Agreed the one had after a few months the power adjusting ring seized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbob Posted December 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 Thanks for the advise folks. It's very easy to go along with reviews but hearing people's experiences helps alot more. I will look for a hawke or maybe a Nikko mountmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.C Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 +1 for the Mountmaster. I have a 3-9x50 AO and will prob get a 4-12x50 AO. For under £50 with free mounts their cracking value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbob Posted December 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 I was thinking about a 6x40 mountmaster to go on a 22lr. Seem to be some good offers out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get one with a bit more magnification, and maybe an adjustable parallax, which could come in handy should you wish to use add on NV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy RV Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Can you stretch to this?.. http://www.airgunbbs.com/showthread.php?815766-Lisenfield-6x42-spezial It will be a better scope than anything from the Far East at that price.

Unfortunately Im not a member of that forum so cant see the content of the link. I do want to say thanks for all the advice so far guys. It has steered me away from wasting money and also confirmed what my train of though was before I considered the afore mentioned scopes lol.
