I need some information and I would like to know what scope are you using on your Wildcat including the mounts and rings. I am sure guys who own the Wildcat know of the best fit. Mostly used for hunting, but target shooting next.
I understand there are many options, I just wanted to see what is going on these guns and is it working with the gun nicely. I plan on using a Eagle Vision camera mount with the scope also. I did not buy one yet and as a new air gunner looking for some guidance

Since your talking eagle vision.......one of the threaded eyepiece scopes from Hawke would be a good choice......like an airmax 30SF.

I have a MTC Connect with connect mount on mine. Looks a works wonderful

Are all the Hawke scopes have threaded eye piece's?? I am liking the the airmax, have no idea what that dial is by the eye piece. I am thinking for the illumination, something I do not need

some scopes I look at have bad reviews, others are just too heavy for a bullpup. I am really stuck and made no decision yet

"Verve"Hawke Panorama 6-18x50 with Sportsmatch high mounts

what does this model weigh?

PlanB · Jul 30, 2016

bushnel 6500 is lighter than many and 2.5x gives wide field of view

4x16x40 Accushot with the angled cut on the front lens shrowd. Small, light scope that looks great on the WildCat, and lens is perfect. $135 on Amazon, can't go wrong.

Thanks. I sent it to have it professionally hydrodipped. I have the 4 inch sunshade on so it seems long.

I like that, Can you shoot me a PM as to where you sent it out???

Thanks I will look into this one. This scope is very heavy, great price. I have a few Accu-Shot scopes already.. last scope I purchased was a leupold and I really like that scope which is bottom end VX-2.I bought with the fine retcile. Real nice for target shooting. I will keep moving forward.

I have MTC Viper Connects on both my Wildcats.

One has high mounts, which are a tad too high. The other has (fairly high) medium Hawke mounts - which are just right.

I prefer the AMD reticle to the SCB.

Fast Eddie thanks for the link, very cool my friend, I had a friend on my Electrical installation jobs called "Fast Eddie"

@Airborne: MTC Connect (the bigger 32mm, not the 24mm) with connect mount. Awesome fit, height is exactly good. (I have another on my BSA Scorpion)
Never having seen the AMD reticle in real life, I prefer the SCB2, as the reticle shows many aimpoints, which are easliy discernible as the length of the horizontal bars steadily increase with drop, and in the center the cross shows half and 3/4 marks. (the mark spacing is exactly the size as mildots, only they are bars)
The one drawback for camera use (I guess) is since the SCB2 reticle is extremely (and by that I mean EXTREMELY) thin, so the camera may not pick it up at all... (The MTC SCB reticle (so not the SCB2) is much "fatter")

@Fasteddie: that digital camo looks badass! Great!

Thanks for the info. I bought a leupold and I am very happy with it, so I bought another, my first one has a fine reticle , so this one on the way has a duplex not as fine so it should work with a camera...mtc are fine scopes i had to add in weight and leupold has most beat. sorry for the typing, i am in a flareup and having problems today...thanks for the post
