Thanks for the review. I for one will be interested to hear more as I'm considering something along the lines of a 6x something mildot.
Nice little scope
Good points...
Very small, great for a small gun.
The AO and IR work as they should, no complaints.
6x mag and being so short gives it a great depth of view.
Filp up covers thrown in.
6x is enough for those long shots too.
Mil dot.
Not so good points...
Mildots are wide apart, but still fairly useful.
Cross hairs are a bit on the thick side.
Optics arent amazing, but good enough for £40 posted
So far I've used it for only one hft shoot, but when I try it lamping in the week I'll write more.

Hi Wadoka.. any chance you can take a pic through the scope with a digital camera.. let us see just how thick the cross hairs and mill dots are..?
Go on.. You know you want to..
I'll try, need to blag a digital camera first.
thanks for the review i have got to try one now on my latest little project
atb ROGM
I'm still trying to sort the digi cam, about time I bought one I suppose
Well, I've used it twice for hft and its actually quite well suited, especially for the close and mid range shots. For 45 yarders the mag is a bit low, optics not super clear and the crosshairs a bit thick. The IR came in handy last time, the day was a bit gloomy in the woods so I put it on low level red and that helped.
So, while I've still not used it hunting I'm sure I'll be perfectly happy with it.
Sounds good - I'd be interested to hear how it compares with the other cheapie - the Walther 6x42 - which also has AO and IR.

I've worked out the mildot MOA of these scopes if anyones interested. You can use the info in chairgun to work out a turret label.
Its moa/dot is 5.371
I've actually got this scope working on my nv monocular, it has no trouble getting a clear crosshair and target, and the thicker than normal reticle is an advantage in this context . I dont think its light gathering is up to much though, with my yukon led illuminator I'm only getting about usable ~20 yards
I suspect with a good laser illuminator it would be fine at 12tflb air rifle ranges, whever I buy one or try a larger scope with the existing illuminator I havent decided.
Next payday I'll get another one of these little scope just incase they stop selling them I'm bound to use it at some point.
