VWman 232 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Whats good and whats not. Have you ever bought one then regretted it. What do you have to spend to get a good one that will last. Are they rain proof and do they work at night. Cheers lads you have not let me down yet and have pointed me at some good kit so far. Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,557 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Can`t speak for night time but for day time the Hawke has been so ,so accurate. atb Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hawke 400 or vision king ,you can use them at night but you would have difficulty seeing what you are pointing at and the screen , some times i put a red led torch on and that works well 2 Quote Link to post
Rez 4,961 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hawke for me. Its just gives enough when second guessing and to be fair has been spot since I got it. [Having had a mare with the post I made about 2 weeks ago about it] Quote Link to post
VWman 232 Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Cheers That's 3 for Hawke, that will do I will check out the price. Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Longridge Pinpoint Pro, which is basically a Hawke LRF 400 in golf trousers. Some of the golf range finders are actually hunting rangefinders, just sold to rabbit breeders as range finders for less money! That is right the pillocks in Pringle pay less than you do for exactly the same thing with a Hawke badge, Just make sure it is one that works by laser reflection not by angle and you will pay less. That is what we did with my range finder! Quote Link to post

David.evans 5,323 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hawke 400 More than good enough for air rifles , got one my self As VM said works well with green/red torch Atb Quote Link to post
mjr88 50 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) Hi VWman Another vote for the Hawke here. I swapped an old 1960's Webley air pistol for this Hawke 600 pro solar, and over the last couple of years I can not fault it. Excellent piece of kit, John Edited August 1, 2015 by mjr88 Quote Link to post

stealthy1 3,964 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Hawke 400LR for me too, does what it says on the tin, had it a couple of years now, and still working ok, so a big thumbs up to it. Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Longridge PinPoint for me, works like a charm, and reasonably priced. Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Longridge PinPoint for me, works like a charm, and reasonably priced. Ooh you got one as well! Mine is now 4 years old and worth every penny of the forty odd quid it cost... 1 Quote Link to post

Mine is now 4 years old and worth every penny of the forty odd quid it cost... Yup, mine's a few years old, and it's still on the original battery. Simple but effective bit of kit. Quote Link to post
