    New Scope recommendation please gents

    I'm wanting a new scope for my Axsor currently I have the Hawke nite eye in my sig, but not too happy with it the zero seems to shift fairly regularly and the AO is a pain in the chuff.

    So I want a new toy my requirements are:
    Designed for airgun use.
    Illuminated ret.
    decent mag 10+
    Good light gathering
    Budget of £250 at the most but would prefer £200.
    Don't really want adjustable Objective as I find it a faff in the field and my gun is more or less a full time hunter.

    Suggestions please gentlemen?

    I traded my hawke in at the weekend and got a SIMMONS ProAir 4-12x40,far better in my opinion.

    I had the same scope on my MFR FAC,sent it back to uttings and got me a mtc 4-16x50 ,what ever you have said in your statement above as to what you require this scope will superseed your expectations by a long way.
    Top scope and its a very nicely made scope with extras and keeps you out in the field that bit more longer as night time falls.
