Hawke Sidewinder 30SF IR 4-16x50 Mil/MOA

[Guest]

So I ordered this for my Diana 430L. I'm going to try my hand shooting FTT with some of you fellows. I hope I can find a couple of places around here within a half a days drive. I am in eastern VA. Did I get the right optic for that task?

Had that scope absolutely hated the hard to see 10x retical. You'll see what I mean when you look through yours. Friggen too hard to see according to MY eyes just like the 4-14x42 reticle as well that 10x doesn't do it for me. Glass is pretty good though. Yo!

I have a Hawke Frontier SF30 that is very nice but why do they have a mil reticle and moa turrent adjustments? Doesn't make sense to me.

Well, given my druthers I would go with 1/10 MIL or 1/8 MOA turrets but it really doesn't matter. One tenth mil is 0.34 MOA and you will sometimes see a MIL/MIL scope marked as 1/3 MOA per click or even 1/3 inch at 100 yards. It is simple enough to just remember that 1/4 MOA is about 1/14 MIL (a bit less but close enough for most adjustments). Why they do that? No idea.

Hi,

Are the turrets reliable on this scope?



Thanks,

I chose the same scope but in FFP (17410) for my TX200-3. 
it has a different reticle with the tree style dots. I can offer no pertinent input like others here can, but wanted you to know I really like the scope!! 
I wish there was some sort of FT competition here in the PNW. I would like to try it for fun. 


enjoy your scope on the Diana
