Hi! i would like to know views on these scopes compared to similar optics &value for money, thanks garry.

I have two, whilst not on par with my Bussnel 6x18 optically, they are excellent value for money, and you would have spend a lot more money to better them IMHO.

Nice clear image and the mil dots are fine for airgun use. First dot under at X6 mag at 40yds works for me. The eye relief at higher mags is less than a Swat,,,but at £60, it suits me sir.

i have both the 3/9/50 and the 6/24/50 and the glass is fine for the money a real bargain.the only problem with them seems to be the pa ring is very stiff on some although my 3/9 is fine but the 6/24 is stiff but i rarely use the pa anyway so not a problem.

ps i would recomend the 3/9/50 as being more usefull for hunting than the other.

I too had a problem with PA stiffness on the 3/9/50. Have you had a look inside the PA end with a torch?? There is a huge lump of spring in there which seems to keep the front end tensioned. If the tension could be reduced a little then I,m sure the PA would be much smoother. Like you though,,I tend to set it and leave it alone.

i will have a look, i always presumed its was a badly cut thread but worth alook.

I also have both these scopes and agree wholeheartedly with all of the above. I personally prefer the 3-9x50. My only complaint is that the reticle on the 6-24 isn't etched and looks a bit naff (like two pieces of sparkling string when you use the IR). That said, I've never used the IR feature in the field.
