My Hawke works well. It's the 3-9 one. Turrets are capped and underneath it isn't numbered, so dialling it is risky as it'd be easy to lose track. Illuminated reticle for low light is handy - it...

Any No4 bolt will fit but it will need to be checked for headspace before using. This is a classic case of why you never separate bolts from rifles!

I have some excellent examples of .303 rifles in my collection including two pristine Parker Hale standard sporters (No1 and No4). Sadly I cannot focus on front sights anymore, and I have absolutely...

Same for a hunting scope. 5 mRad (20moa) is plenty for even long shots. For target shooting with heavy undervelocity bullets, the more usable elevation the better. Maybe imperial tubes are last...

Headed out Saturday morning (earlyish after doing my work rounds) to a local DOC block I haunt/frequent. Wanted to blood my new Henry single shot in 45/70 and try out a new pack idea I had...

Greetings Charlie Horse, Whatever the load is is FAR too hot. The ejector hole marks mean that the elastic limit of the brass has been exceeded and the brass is flowing back into the ejector hole....

Throw levers are become quite common with the latest scopes which is nice as are a great idea. Sorry I was wrong before, it is odd they haven't made it a 24mm obj lens as that is the normal size...

More elevation is typically the reason for it, or more room to allow for internals to meet design criteria. I'm guessing this particular one is just so for commonality with the rest of the range.

It's not but other than being lightweight they are pretty lack luster. SFP only, narrow FOV, 6mil per rev turrets. Compared to the latest offerings by the likes of Athlon they look like a 15 year...
