    Can't wait for mine to arrive!

    After reading all the good reports and trying a few out, I had only 1 choice for a do all scope when purchasing a .177 gun.

    Managed to get one second hand on here at a good price (thanks Craig.25). Now if only posting a parcel was as fast as sending an email!!!

    Will report my finding once I've had chance to test it but I'm sure I'll just be repeating other peoples findings.

    I'm confident I won't need to but where would I stand from a warranty point of view - if required? Is Gary.C looking in, can he shed some light on the subject?

    I really want to get the 3-12x44 Viper and will do as soon as funds allow (maybe next month hehe) But I have heard alot of people complaining about the size of the turrets?? Would I be best off waiting for the Mamba and are the optics and reticule as good on the mamba as they are on the Viper??

    same optics
    ret choice is on the website
    Turrets are ultra low on the mamba or lockable target on the Viper. Which is best? your choice

    Cheers for the instant reply! I am not sure what the ret is called on the Viper. I know the mamba has the german 4a ret and the SCB but Im not sure what these rets look like?

    The price of the mamba seems alot lower than the viper especially as you say the optics are the same!

    Might get myself one of the mamba's then

    Is "ultra low" finger friendly or a screwdriver/coin jobbie? Not a biggie either way TBH but I may indulge myself of one when they arrive. Also any plans for a fixed 10x version of this as the fixed mag Viper has a bigger DOF that the variable IMO.
