Supreme bargin - Hawke Sport HD 4x32 AO Rifle Scope w/ Mil-Dot Reticle

This is one hell of a bargin. Prob the best bang for your buck out there. I mounted it on a CZ 455 Lux in .22lr. The scope has a good sight picture. The image is sharp from edge to edge and the paralex adjustments go all the way down to 15 feet which is great for a rimfire scope. The adjustments are nice and percise with positive clicks between stops. You dont need tools to adjust the elev/windage. The image quality is comparable to BSA's sweet .22 model at half the price. The only real complaint I have is its slightly dim image. Its not noticable in bright sunlight but it is noticable towards the evening when the sun is setting. Other than that I found this to be a superb scope that just looks "right" on a rimfire. I purchased the CZ Lux because it has great open sights. I used some med BKL rings. I am able to see the iron sights throught the rings which is great for close us shots. The scopes objective bell sits about 1/8 of a inch about the rear sight. I dont have to raise my head of the stock to use the scope. I can use the both the sights and scope with a good positibe cheekweld. The Lux has a hog back design stock, I just have to slide my cheek alittle foward to use the sights...slide my cheek a inch or two back and the scope pops into position.... Its the perfect "nutter" or squirel hunting rig.
Pros: Price, Sharpness, Recticle, Accurate Adjustments
Cons: Slightly dim images compared to higher end scopes
