my new scope

[Lez325]

I decide to splash out on a "good scope" for the HMR

I visited Sportsman Guns in Yeovil and came away with

Leupold V11- which is a 4-12 x 40 front PX-25mm tube

1st impressions where "HOW MUCH"???????

£335 - but on closer inspection I found the scope to be very well made and the optics are the best Ive ever come across - it looks like a bog standard scope to any un-educated person but all I can say is what a remarkable scope crystal clear from 8m to infinity with a fine duplex ret - I'm totally convinced these scope "are well worth that little extra ££

best thing Ive ever bought --

Just need to pop out this morning and zero it

So, now my Bushnell Legend is up for grabs if anyone wants one - PM me

Nice one Lez.

I gotta say I bought a Tasco a few weeks back and ended up taking it back to the shop, it was complete poo. I've now got a Hawke and whilst that isn't in the league of more expensive scopes, it is much better than the Tasco.

Yes for the money the Hawkes are good scopes Ive had a few in my time- can't fault them for the price
