    Hi Davestate,

    "They have crap optics, tight rings and weigh a ton - avoid like the plague!"

    If it really is as crap as you say, , I'll take it off your hands, and give you a generous £10 for it £10 for a load of crap can't be bad now, can it?

    Doug
    Regards,

    Doug

    The new AGS SWAT 3-12x44 sounds worth adding to the list.

    or the leapers accushot 3-12x44 for ~ 80 notes less

    Longer and pricey, the 6-24x40 bushnell elite 4200 mildot is nice too.

    Doug, it belongs to thepigeonshooter, long story as how it came to me, but I've owned 2 others previously, a 6-18 and a 8-32, both same as this one. Having said that, the lower mag is the one to go for out of the range.

    My suggested scope would be a Nikko Stirling Diamond 6-24x42, best all-rounder available for this sort of money - £350 from BAR.

    I've seen through a couple of these and they fall into my perfectly useable class. There's no way I'd swap one for my 6-24x40 Bushnell Elite mil-dot though which is cheaper if imported from the USA.
