    Some of the best glass Hawke has ever used, a superb scope but better suited to a .243 than an air rifle.
    I've got one sat in the cupboard, unfortunately they don't seem to hold their value because of brand snobbery, deer shooters aren't going to buy/use a Hawke scope no matter how good it is.

    Model HK3342 with the L3 dot reticle cost £199 back in 2011,
    the 3-12x50 model cost £279 while the Sidewinder 3-12x50 was £259.

    i use mine on an airgun for roost shooting woodies, it works a treat, they are heavy but built to take heavy recoil. I think i paid £70 for mine second hand about 5 years ago it was still in the box and looked un-used .

    If its the mildot reticle where just the centre dot illuminates - they are quite a popular reticle.
    Sorry no idea on value though...

    Parallaxed to 100 yards. This is the airgunners nemesis. Virtually all scopes without adjustable objective or side focus are marketed for the centrefire world. The scope in question is excellent, but would only probably fetch around the £100 mark and good for a centrefire or HMR.
