Hawkes are for the birds....

[secretagentmole 1,701]

Finally got out hunting again (yay) after a change of glass. Wanted IR, but Hawke no longer do the SR6 and the prices they want for a scope is eye watering. Found something and after a musical glass session I had a new scope to zero in, which took but a few minutes, then into the woods.

The new optics worked well in low light levels, I got 5 out the trees, the scope seemed easier to use on those threading through the branches shots.  So Mole has finally been weaned off Hawke....

And is finally back out in the woods...

If you compare Discovery to Hawke on a £ for £ basis, you realise how overpriced Hawke are now.

The Sport scopes were taken off market for just that reason.

                Great value for money scope.

                Great scope on the HW 100 KS .22.

 

Welcome home S-A-M.
