Which scope??

I saw this earlier and didn't respond for a few reasons. The scope above is great, but maybe a bit fussy in the ret. If you go £100-120 secondhand you will get into a whole new strata of clarity. The main thing is try them all first. As with binoculars, a scope that is great in my eyes may be poor for yours.

Scopes are a very personal choice, like butlers or mistresses.

Cheers chaps, Having had a look at a few I reckon I will spend a bit more and just buy one for the moment. I like the idea of the 2-7 x 32.

All my scopes are around that size, the Airmax is great, the Redfield Revolution and Bushnell are better, but the Leupold is best. For targets only (or if you're cleverererer than me) I would say the Airmax is hard to beat for the money.

Also check out the Vortex Diamondback 2-7x35 mate, bloody excellent, approx £100 second hand.If your lucky, a tad cheaper.

I think I may have been blinkered in the past by size of scope. I'm asking the question because when I bought my TX200 I bought a Nikko Stirling cheap 4 - 12 x 50 with it and although functional the clarity is not great as you can probably imagine. I have a few nice rifles that i've accumulated over the years but always been a tight wad with optics as I've only really messed around plinking in the back garden. Having been to the boinger bash I've realised my airgun knowledge is seriously limited in comparison to a lot if not most of the guys on here. I would now like to do some club shooting and obviously attend the boinger bash again so feel the necessity for a decent scope.

I've been shooting for nearly 30 years mate and my scopes have always been at the cheap end, there ok and functional. But over the last year or so I've started to acquire better glass, buy second hand and you can get some great optics for not a lot of money.
Edit, big is not always best, in scopes anyway

Worth a look...

Cheers, I think next weekend I'm going to have a ride out to a few gun shops on the motorbike and have a look at a few in the flesh.
