Hi
Had my Hawke mil dot 6.5-20x50AOIR Nite-eye for about 12 weeks, supposed to be fogproof, waterproof and shockproof and rated for spring guns.
Firstly dirt appeared on inside, black spots on inside ocular lens. Then it started rattling as my HW97k shook everything loose, even the lenses came loose. Contacted a well known air rifle shop in Blackpool, was told that quite a few Hawke scopes had experienced similar problems.
Mil dot reticle quite nice but Gorilla's hands needed to turn on IR, as very tight overall not good value. At £160+mounts+sunshade+flip up covers
Optics never seamed as clear as MTC or Simmons, worth paying extra £40 or so for MTC as comes with mounts, flip up covers and sun shade.![]()
Maybe somebody has had similar experience with Hawke
