CZ Varminter Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Anybody heard of anything good about this scope planning on using it on my 22-250 and for the money can i go wrong!? What are your thoughts guys? The one i want has a half mil dot reticule 6-24 x 56 .25 MOA ballistic turrets. J CZ Varminter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I'll be a party pooper your ret is in Mils and turrets in MOA. You work out the math...... I have never used Hawke myself so can't comment on durability or light gathering. IMHO save for a fixed mag euro scope for lamping and strongly consider an IOR or zeiss conquest for long range. Buy once, cry once from experience that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ Varminter Posted May 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 The reticule would only get used as quick aim, or holdover for wind etc, the MOA turrets are useful for elevation and using with ballistics software...or am i missing something mate? fairly new to this game so please educate.

eldon Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Sorry I don't rate Hawke generally anyway so I wouldn't be buying one personally. A friend had a Hawke (not this one) on a 22 and after a days bunny bashing in the rain there was more water inside the scope than on the rest of the rifle. Garbage, maybe just one bad example but I would suggest adhering to scotch eggs advice and buy wisely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-B Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 I wouldn't bother with that Hawke either, or any of the deben scopes, not when you can get a Nikon for about the same money but granted with less bells and whistles. I've had a Monarch for 7yr now on a hmr and it's light gathering is right up there with the top European glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ Varminter Posted May 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Funny that I have bought it, and i tell you what its fantastic. The turrets are wearing in nicely and they have been extremely accurate to date with my Shooter ballistics calc on Android phone. Shooting tin cans out at 414yrds, clear picture all the way through the zoom ranges. side adjustment parralax is smooth and the reticle is awesome. I have to admit i am very impressed for the price and not only that, i am apparently the only customer in the country who had one (...first one) when i bought it! if i get chance i will post some pics online if need be guys follow link to my video. http://www.youtube.com/user/LtJAWS?feature=mhee#p/a/u/2/M-6Ipwh5QXY Hope it works.
