glass on the hawkes is ok, i got the 10x40x50 1/8 min dot target, the only gripe i have is the tha turrets are pish and do not always return to zero after dialing up...

 

snap.

Snap, sniper scopes they aren't. They seem pretty well designed to be zeroed in, and then left there. I have one on my PCP, and one on my .22LR, and I've not touched the turrets since I first zeroed them. They seem to take all the knocks and bumps, and just keep on doing the job. Apparently their customer services are excellent too. For the money I don't think you can go wrong, and people use them on spring powered air rifles, which are far worse for knocking the scope around than an HMR!

 

I'd say if they're a good price, then go for it. You won't be disappointed (and no, I'm not an employee, or on commission!)

I've always been a fan of Hawke scopes - except the HD Sport.

 

Found them milky on high mag and the glass isn't that special on lower mags, don't get me wrong I know they're only a cheap scope but there are better scopes in that price bracket or buy second hand.

 

I bought a second hand Simmons 8 Point for under £18 and the glass on that is seriously good.
