I had my first Hawke scope fail, a Frontier 4-20x44 SF 1" model 18130. That's a first out of many, many Hawke scopes. I recently put it on my BRK Sniper magnum 22 and it shot...?ok? groups, then it started throwing fliers. Well, that got me checking everything on the rifle, a rifle which is a stellar shooter, and found nothing. Then I noticed that when I turned it 10 clicks at 20x, it didn't move anywhere near 1 mil. Then I noticed that when rezeroing it, it would not always move the poi the same for each adjustment that was the same, so now we know what's up. Install a SWFA SS 10x, one of, if not, THE most reliable scopes on the planet and wallah! one hole groups again!
Anyone ever had a Frontier fail? I know Hawke's service is the best, so I have no worries about getting it taken care of. I once had a used Airmax I bought of ebay that had debris in the scope all over the lenses, it worked fine but was hard to look through, although looking back, it wasn't as bad as some of the xmas tree reticles I've seen nowadays
, but anyway Hawke replaced it and I still have that scope going strong, and that has to have been 6 years ago or so.
