HFT Scope

[sparky]

People always ask what’s the best scope for HFT but in all honesty the best scope is what you like yourself.
In 2003 I borrowed a Nikko Sniper from Andy Winch and eventually bought one as I found them ideal, then I gave the EB Sniper a go and found this was the perfect scope for me.
The start of the 2003 series I was the only shooter using one, but after a few shooters had a look at one, they must feel the same as me as now the list below shows how many are on the circuit or have used them at sometime or another.

Plus loads of Tasco, Nikko & Deben 10x42’s out there

[Rabbit Sniper]

I've got a Deben/Hakko and the quality is excellent, I've had many scopes, but this must be the best.
I recommend a Sniper to anyone...

[andy_scouser]

i use the 10x EB sniper and think its fantastic for HFT. A lot of people also use these on full bore taret rifles. I also really like the hawke 3-9x50 reflex, though not in the same class, it was up for the job.

[Kev. (Cambs.)]

Bah humbug, you and your £300 scopes....

I've got a cheap and nasty 4x32 with a 'Made in China' sticker on the side, only cost me £5 off the local car boot. I think this is a brill scope.....

.......mind you, do you think this is why my scores are no good........

[andy_scouser]

the reflex is £80 odd, and has a song written for it.

[Gazo]

Yep would never part with mine on my hunting or HFt set up...by the way I have a brand new spare one going if anyone is interested (see for sale section)
Best scopes I have ever had the pleasure of looking through.

Well it anit I can see clearly now

[Sniper 296]

I would love a bushnell there really clear... never look though a sniper yet...


I got a harke Airmax 5.5-16x44 and it doing me great!!

[Darren Petts]

If you want the best then have a peek through Gary C.'s Meopta. Absolutely cracking optics and a great reticle. If it'd have been pa I'd have kept it myself forever but for pure HFT the fixed pa is perfectly ok. I honestly doubt anyone would choose a sniper over the Meopta for HFT but that's just my oppinion not a fact.

Yea I have peeked though the scope that was on his styer... very nice!

[Gary C]

Couple of things - Meopta is ladder not Mil dot but I prefer it.
I don't think you can beat the snipers for mil dot ret .
