Hawk 10x42 tactical (First Impression)

[deano]

What's the Illuminated Reticle like on this particular scope?I've seen through some makes of scopes and their version of the IR,and some I gotta say are pretty shocking!Would be interesting to know what this scope is like in low light for Dusk/Dawn Shooting too?
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thankyou.

no reflection of IR in the tube, really good ret when illuminated, very sharp, doesnt blur once lit either.

i use it for shooting in low light - find it to be perfectly fine.

Thankyou dean.This scope could probably be the best value for money scope on the Market today?!

i dertainly rate it very highly, and think that there is very few scopes on the market in this price bracket that can compete.

Well I have recently bought two, a 6.5 -20 for the HMR and an 8.5 - 25 for my 22 - 250 and I must say I am very very impressed with their glass and build. Sold a Schmidt of my 22 - 250 simply because its usage didn't reflect its value but this has been a great replacement. The BRC data is a real bonus also.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

yeah, the BRC data seems to tie in quite well with my HMR trajectory and half-mil ret, just allows an extra dimension to the scope, hope they continue with this line of scopes for a while.

how's the half-mil's pan out for the 22-250, take it you're only using the first one out to 300yds!!

fancy getting another to put on the CF! i reckon it would work well on .243, so might pop one on to see.
