    Hunting a classic scope

    Hi folks,

    I am looking for a good quality period scope for an HW35.

    I guess it would be Pecar, Taso, Nikko etc etc.

    It is to go on a V-Mach rebuilt/blued HW35, so something with a nice deep shine would do nicely.

    It is a bit of a fashion accessory as well as a practical sight, but you get my drift.

    Is this silly? I dont know

    Saw a nice one (think it was a diamond something or other, the ret was diamond shaped and was, I think, second focal plane...changed size with the zoom).

    Any thoughts. It will be a cracking rifle, so obviously I would like the scope to look right, as well as doing it's job.
    I'm a maggot in another life you know

    I like scopes. The Simons diamond mad was a great PCP scope but still not the best scope in the world; had two but didn't keep them.

    HW35E should have an Optima Moonlighter or Tasco TR; thats if you can find one.

    This scope is a Bausch & Lomb on my HW77.

    I hope Parabuteo has found his scope...

    I am after one too.

    Would anyone have a Jap Tasco AG 2-7x32 or something similar (compact) for sale?
