Hello, I have recently purchased a bsa r10 th. I have already fitted it with a Huma reg, and have it shooting at my desired velocity, and consistency. The issue I am having is with my scope, and the loading port, I use a single shot tray. I have an Optisan EVX, and while i love the clarity and reticle, im looking to replace, due to the larger scope wheel completely blocking the loading port of the rifle, and the seemingly limited ranging rotation degrees. I have only shot 1 match of Hunter Class hft, and really enjoyed it, so what im hoping to get help with from more experienced shooters, is a recommendation for a scope with good ranging, clarity, and an easily aquired third part scope wheel, preferably a comma wheel, as that would solve the loading port issue. My budget is up to 400$. Thanks in advance, have been googling for several days, and decided to make a post, as the r10 does not seem to be a common rifle for hft, so a bit of an unusual problem.

You could go to a scope with a normal adjustable objective. I like my Leupold 6.5-20 EFR but they are hard to find with mil dots. Leupold will install any reticle you want but is pricey. A left handed shooter I know actually cut a hole in his sidewheel to allow him to keep using magazines with his rifle because he didn't like single loading.

Personally prefer front A/O but..... any chance a Coma style side wheel provides the access you need?
And you've asked around your club right? Very likely your best solution might come from a fellow shooter.
Keep us posted,

I have not really considered a front a/o, didnt think it would be very good for marking the range distances. Only real club near me is an indoor range, 50 foot. W have a few shooters interested in hft, but none of us are very versed in the specifics. I do believe a coma wheel would work, just have not yet found one that is designed for the evx, and it has a difficult side knob shape, according to one custom maker. Thanks for the replies so far.
