The Hawke scopes are fantastic value for the money!
I won't look past them for my needs!

I've found the same issues with Hawke scopes as I found with Tamron and Vivitar photographic lenses.; the glass is fine but the mechanics are sadly lacking. Admittedly I haven't ever owned a high end Hawke scope-and never would because of my experiences with the cheaper ones.

Had a Hawke Sport HD 4x40 mil-dot on my "95k/.177" and the scope gave in to the whiplash in the end, good sight picture, reasonable build quality but I thought these things were supposed to be springer rated after all it was mounted via a "Dampa Mount" !!!

Just got a Hawke panorama ev 4-12x50 ao and replacing Nikko Stirling equivalents and I am very happy with them. Will eventually be looking for mtc scope as friends rate them but for the prices I'll stick with my Hawkes for now

I'm a fan of Hawke, got three different scopes all excellent quality.

I have just put a hawke panorama 4x12x40 scope on my Weihrauch 98k it has very sharp optics, will have to see if it stands up to the recoil, never had trouble with my other hawke scopes but they were on pcp rifles.

I have to agree with you on Hawke. Bought a 3x9x40 sport hd for £40.
I had to adjust the parallax down a bit to 45yards to suit my needs
Cant knock it for the money
