As I approached, I could see a squirrel already sitting on the platform, munching away at the peanuts. Robust mechanical system with special designs on both control and erector system that give you the ultimate recoil resistance to withstand 1000G recoil for 1000 times. The downside to this reticle is that it has no illumination capabilities and is not ideal in low light. The lenses have coatings to help with clarity and light correction if there are low light conditions, but it is not the reticle you would want to use if you plan to be shooting in dark conditions like dawn or dusk. Maximizes alignment for improved accuracy and optimum visual performance, as well as ensures strength and waterproofness.

A minute of angle is 1/60th of a degree, and every minute of angle is equivalent to a one-inch difference in distance between two points for every 100 yards. In 1955 Glendenning wrote the forward to a booklet published by J A Davis called 'How to choose a binocular'. For sixpence the booklet looked at the main uses for binoculars: horse racing,Simplicity is underrated. Sometimes, there isn't a need for bells and whistles. All that is needed is a solid product to do a job. The Hawke Vantage IR 4-12x40 AO Rifle Scope d e l i v e rs performance beyond what is expected at this price point. With the design focus on functionality and performance in the field, the Vantage line represents tremendous value without corners on the things that matter. Selected models feature parallax adjustment. Adjustable objective (AO) models allow you to correct parallax error down to 10 yards. Vantage Scopes feature a mono-tube chassis to provide stability and durability, to even magnum recoil. A mix of X-ACT ballistic and standard reticle options mean Vantage scopes are at home in almost any environment and with virtually any firearm.Versatile, affordable, exceptional. Vantage from Hawke is redefining value in optics. Airguns can have a devastating effect on optics if the right products aren’t used. Hawke is an industry leader in developing specialised optics for serious airgun shooters and hunters. Airmax scopes are available in either 1 inch or 30mm chassis designs. With 15 MOA of adjustment for each rotation, the low-profile turrets operate with repeatable accuracy. Once on target the scale can be reset to zero. The FFP AMX IR reticle was developed specifically for first focal plane optical systems and based around the common principles of mil spaced reticles.

The Airmax 1 inch family features and intergrated adjustable objective for accurate focus and elimination of parallax error. O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust and debris from penetrating the riflescope for reliable performance in all environments. When the rifle settled from the recoil, I watched the squirrel through the scope as it fell forward and then dangled from an ivy creeper as its nervous system shut down and triggered a clenching reaction. A few seconds later, it fell to the floor, crashing through the canopy. Hawke Airmax 4-12x40 AO Rifle Scope.The Airmax 1 inch family has three magnification ranges to suit the needs of almost any shooter. Built in an adjustable objective chassis, the Airmax uses the non-illuminated AMX reticle to improve downrange accuracy of any airgun shooter.Budget is the factor that usually sets our parameters, especially with scopes. I don’t know about you, but I’m loath to buy a scope that costs more than the rifle it’s going on. And yet I don’t want to limit the potential of the rifle by going too cheap. The third 25mm tube sub-category, the Vantage IR line-up, comprises 21 scopes with a mixture of side and objective parallax adjustment as well as the benefit of an illuminated reticle. Objective lens options are 32, 40 and 50mm with magnification from 2-7x up to 6-24x. Fog proof to allow you to immediately engage your target when you take your rifle to cold ambient temperature from warm inside. The image is crystal clear and allows plenty of light, even when the sun starts to go down. The controls are well-engineered, allowing for easy adjustment of both parallax and magnification. And the turrets had proven themselves on the range to be precise and accurate.

Easy magnification adjustment which doesn’t shift under recoil thanks to the high torque set-up – smooth yet solid. However, in the field when movement needs to be kept at a minimum, there’s no denying that a side-focus setup is more convenient to use.The Vantage range features 11 layer fully multi-coated lenses throughout the entire optical system for enhanced light transmission and increased contrast. The Hawke Vantage IR 4-12x40 features a monotube chassis to provide stability and durability, to even magnum recoil. A mix of X-ACT ballistic and standard reticle options means Vantage scopes are at home in almost any environment and with virtually any firearm. Versatile, affordable, exceptional.
