villaman 9,983 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Just a up date on the Discovery scope I bought a few weeks ago . I got this scope to go on the FX .22 fac crown Which I will post later . I like Hawke scopes my self , I have tried a few other makes like Niko sterling which are ok but not as good as Hawke , mtc which I have tried a few different models but just find reticules are all to fussy and mamba did suffer from white out in low light a long with fussy lines everywhere. Discovery which I have 3-12-44 sf recital are very clear 1/2 mildot with plenty of aim point for air riffle same with the glass ,very clear, come with flip up scope caps and a very nice side wheel which is very handy indeed ,specially with Addon NV from CRS . Normally these side wheels are far to big but this one is about 50mm Spec is on par with Hawke vantage 3-12-44 sf but has no side wheel . IMO it is just as good as the Hawke if not better and about £70-75 cheaper If any one is looking for a new scope , defiantly have a look at Discovery scopes https://discoveryoptics.co.uk/vt-z-sf-range/ 1 Quote Link to post

Deker 3,478 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Do the turrets need an allen key to adjust, that's a deal breaker for me, been there before!? Scopes look like a cross between the old Howke Varmint and JSR, but then again, what can you do with a scope? Price seems keen. I like mil-dot (there on ALL my scopes) and I'm steadily updated all to side wheel. . Quote Link to post

What’s the difference between your add on from crs & Pav’s from Blackwoods ? Quote Link to post
