Hawke Scope O' Ring.

[On-the-target]

I have a BSA scope with an O ring between the ocular adjustment and the locking ring. I think it is there to keep the inside of the scope sealed from the atmosphere.

If you still have the receipt send Hawke an email and they should sort it out for you. I think they now have a policy to honour their warranty for the scope if purchased new, no matter how the damage is caused. I also think that if the scope isn't a current model and they can't repair it they will replace it with at least a current equivalent model.
I have just pasted this from their website.

I would have thought any of ring of 1.5mm cross section would suffice, nearest diameter you can guess. It's not holding any pressure.

Thanks for the replies.

Contacted Hawke and they're sending a replacement ocular O ring to me. Cracking service by Hawke and all done in the space of an hour or so via email today.

angrybear on the link to a picture I've drawn an arrow pointing to where the ocular O ring fits. It fits under the eyepiece lock ring bud.
