philpot 5,020 Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 I looked at the Mamba before buying the Genesis 5-20x50 and found it to be a nice scope with good glass. Only went the Genesis route because the scope had been in stock a while and the price was not to be missed. £100 for a mamba sounds a decent price, judging by the prices the guys on AGF sell them at and even better if it comes with mounts. Talking of mounts, I had some issues with my hawke mounts that I used on the genesis. Zero at 25mts spot on, take it out to 60mts, 4'' to the left. Turned out to be the mounts, seamaster put me onto BKL mounts, bloody superb so now in the process of bit by bit changing all guns to BKL, not cheap but very good and self centering.

Jonjon79 13,358 Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 They're good scoped DJ, I also like the SCB ret. I did find that the Vipers worked better for me. But, I sold the Viper and bought a Hawke Airmax with AMX ret and, I haven't looked back since Quote Link to post
vizlauk 1,568 Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Great scope and the right money, if you don't get on with it you will always get your money back mate; the mamba in scb rectical in my opinion is the 1 to have: I do like the 4-16x50 the best. 2 Quote Link to post
