Air gun?

 

I should have taken more from your question than I did because several people now have tried breaking it like an air rifle, one strongly enough to take it off the face more than it already was.

Been using Hawke scopes since they started selling them, it's a UK brand and reasonable price.

 

Depends on what calibre and distance, but I'm old school and don't do all this parallax adjustment and just know my drops.

 

If you're looking at vector I'm guessing you're a turret adjustment kind of shooter over distance?.

 

Plus sport match mounts every day of the week!.

Yea I got Hawk on my Daystate .22 and its fantastic at 30 - 35 yards . But on my .308 I am liking the first focal plane of the Vector Optics scope . I am asking coz of Leupold and the likes . I know its a personal thing but just interested . I think Vector Optics aew very good for the price .

I don't really stretch the legs past 150/200, good enough for the girls I go out with 🙂.

 

I did make a point of getting the rimfire versions as the parallax is set closer than the normal 100yards so less blurry.

 

Think it's 60yards or something like that.

I'm borrowing a Vector red dot from a mate at the moment and am not impressed. Absolute lottery adjustments. Certainly doesn't inspire confidence in a dially scope. I buy Vortex for cheaper stuff because of the warranty. Had a dially one on my dially .22 for years now and very happy with it. Brand agnostic for higher end scopes but always start with Schmidt and rarely need to look further.

 

What are you wanting it for and do you have a budget?

You mentioned Leupold so I'll mention it btw. For the love of god don't buy something with a mil ret and minute knobs. Leupold persisted with this utter crassness for years. Factory-fresh scrap sold for strong mid-range money. Nightforce another fairly bad offender.
