Sisco Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 Stopped by my LGS today and asked the owner, a big Nikon fan, what he was recommending now that Nikon was out of the scope business. He recommended the Hawke High Definition line. Now this man is a distance shooter par excellence. He has won the Palma Cup at Camp Perry and won the World Shooting Championship a few years ago, so his words carry a lot of weight with me. Has anybody had any experience with their products?
Lonewolf McQuade Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 I haven't any experience with Hawke, but you've peaked my interest to take a look 👍. I too is/was a Nikon fan, sucks they bailed on the scope line
Belt Fed Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 No experience with them but have heard a couple talk about how they liked theirs.
shooterrex Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 I've never owned one but I had a customer at the gun shop and that's all he would buy. Swore by them. I also was a fan of Nikon.
Sisco Posted July 29, 2021 Author Report Posted July 29, 2021 I checked out their line on O.P. And they have a pretty impressive line, with magnification up to 40x. The one I am looking at is a 4x20 variable in the $500 range. MyLGS is competitive on price. Just paid property taxes, gotta wait until next month.

98Z5V Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 They look like they've brought out alot more recently. From history of looking at their scopes in the past, this is the only one I know about:
DNP Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) We just put an Element Helix on my dad’s air rifle. Under $500, 6-24x50, FFP, great reticle…worth a look. I will be getting one or two for other rifles. Edit to add - I mention this one because it seems to be a competitor to Hawke in the air gun world. A lot of people seem pretty pleased with them and I would bet it will be a fine scope. Edited July 29, 2021 by DNP
