JSR 6-24X50??? Any Good?

[Beagle Boy]

Hi all, as above has any one got one? are they good value for the money?
As i am very tempted to get one
Any faults? and would it be suitable to put onto my S200 for bunny bashing?

Excellent budget scope. One of the best for the cash. Perhaps a bit big for general hunting, though no reason why it can't be used.

Oh yes.......
Bought mine of Perry190
Very pleased with it.
Provided you can get used to the front parallax!
Whilst jugglig that and a heavy springer, things can get a bit wobbly.
Otherwise..spot on.
Much better than the 3x9x40 I had before.
Illuminated reticule, gives me a bit of extra time as it starts to get dark.
Turrets nice and adjustable.

What else do you want to know?

Bit big for a s200 buddy, and the one i bought and the one that they replaced it with were TOTAL S*&T!!!

[Beagle Boy]

OK would this gun be able to with stand the rigers of hunting, i have a AGS 3-9x40 on at the minute and it aint bad really, just that the fixed parrlex can be anoying, but saying that its nothing that bothers me too much, do you all think that i'd be best putting it on my brocock hunter? and what is an ideal mag for hunting use?

The only weak point of the S200 is the cocking pin. It'll snap when it pleases whether you hunt or target shoot so use it as you see fit. I prefer 6-8 mag for general use.

ive got a jsr6x24x50 on my mk1 rapid for the dosh cant fault it at all !!!

[bullbarrel]

Got one on my S10 carbine and very pleased with it.

Absolute bargain.

[Mad Pierre]

Got one on my lads S400.
It's helped kill many bunnies.
Some of them can have a very stiff PA, this is sorted by use of a fishing coaster.

I like mine i get on well with it great scope for the money when i was in the market i compared them to comparable scopes and the jsr is just as good if not better than scopes costing twice as much

[deeps]

Yep, concur with most of the above. Had mine for about 6 months and it seems robust and good value for money. Parallax adjustment soon loosens up. Tend to leave it on 10x for hunting and only increase the mag for zeroing the thing in. (hmm... wonder if the POI noticeably shifts when I change mag...must check that....anybody know ?)

[Hollowpoint]

Got one on my s410 Excellent value for money IMO.

We have not one but TWO of these scopes on offer in our Charity Shoot Score Card Draw (which anyone can win). Very kindly donated by JSRamsbottom. You just have to be there to stand a chance of winning one. Draw prizes.

Ive just had a quick look through them and yes they are good clear optics IMO and good value for money. Personally, I think they are too big for use on a S200.

Just for info, I bought one of the mil dot JSR 3-9*50 fixed parallax(set at 35yd) for £27.95 bank holiday special- purely because I was interested what that got you(and I'm a tight git). The blurb with them appears to say the mil dots are true - at first glance they look quite widely spaced (AGS style) but I haven't had time to check properly. Apart from that first impressions are very good - bargain! Don't know how they would react to a springer though.

The JSR 6-24x50 PA & the 3-9x50 PA are actually Tasco's I think when Tasco wnet tits up they bought the stock up and flogged it on but I don't care because they are a real steel
