What Scopes is everyone Using?
- Thread starter FIDI_G
- Start date
I've been using the Hawke Vantage AO's for years on my springers. I like the 2-7 and 3-9 mil-dot versions for my hunters for the wide FOV and the clarity is plenty good for target shooting to 50 yds. I rarely dial once I get sighted in and just use the dots to adjust for distance. Set it and forget it. They aren't expensive, have clear glass, are small, light, durable, have great support (not that I've ever had to use it, but just do a search) and just work. I've not found a reason yet to move on to much higher end optics, as they usually just add cost and weight w/o much more benefit. Just my .02.

I have a Meopta Optika5 4-20x50 w/ illumination and I like it. The glass and weight are both a good fit for me. I would prefer if it were something like a 3-15x50, but they don’t make one with a 1in tube; the Optika6 does look really nice but a bit too heavy for my taste.

I've been into Riton and Valiant lately.. The Riton glass is a smidge clearer but the Valiant RAQ reticle is one of my favorites.

Have you looked at Burris, I have several of them on pb pistols, and have had no issues.Edit How In the world did I think the op said a scope for a pistol. Wow, but I do have a few Burris on my pb pistols and think they would make a good rifle scope as well.

It's a Bullpup air rifle, so the intent is a small,lite, compact air rifle. So a small compact sight should compliment it. I put a 2-7x32 Hawke AMX on my Hatsan Flashpup. Worked out nicely and looks good too,I like the AMX line. The reticle is designed for pellet rifles and the reticle is un-complicated. They may be made in China and I got problems with that but I have not found anthing to compare with what I like about these scopes.Then there are red dot scopes and reflex sights.
