Neil23 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 May have to use the old ones ive already got.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside1000 Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 With a variety of mounts available its easier for them to sell as extras, I got my Hawk 50mm with illuminated cross hairs ( red and green ) and selected the mounts as extras for delivery with the scope, worth every penny, great sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 You will be looking for the hawke fastmount scopes .(usually a hawke vantage scope ) As far as i know these are the only ones bundled with mounts . A bit like the nikko. Mount master range . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 All the top range Hawkes I have (6 of them) did not come with mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitebridges Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) I quite like their Airmax range on everyday airguns. Always ask if the seller(s) will do a freebie on mounts. "No" is the polite answer. They moan about the margin on them which is fair enough i suppose.

sportsbob Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Only the fastmount scopes come with mounts as standard, some sellers may bundle a set of mounts but that is not how Hawker supply them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 The lower priced Hawke scopes (Mountmaster etc) usually come with 1" mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i dont have one i would think about having one if one came up cheap enough but i have always just guessed the range and hold over which has worked well over the years but would be it would be nice to use the scope to its full potential. On the other hand i couldnt rangefind each and every rabbit on a night out id be on forever when u trying to shoot big bags. I dont usually take shots at anything over about 75ish yds under a red light anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
