Q:

Hawke Sidewinder

I thought long and hard about replacing my nikko but with so many choices,trying to find a replacement was going to be tough.After talking with a few members I decided to go with the hawke line for my type of shooting needs.I was very interested in the BRC program for setting up the scope for different yardages.Before I would always just use the old shoot and move the target technique.Now if I can get all my calculations into this program it should be easier.The glass in my 6-24×56 sidewinder is just as good as the nikko sterling.The sidewheel on my nikko was easier to turn but it had a little slop in it and the hawke has none.I wish the sidewheel had more markings on it but I might be able to add a few.Overall I am very happy with the scope and think that is good glass for the money.

looks nice, thank you for posting the pics!

The shade is 4″ long

what’s the length of the sunshade?

care to post a pic with it on? 🙂

They fit very good.And the rubber looks to be molded for the rim of the flip caps.

How do those lens covers work? The Leapers tend to pop open too easily.

Its got the SR12 reticle.I have not had a chance to try the BRC out yet.I am going to try and get around the chrony because I do not have one.If I cant,then I will have to pick one up.

You get mil dot or SR 12 ret?

Hm, and have you tried out the brc software? If so is it accurate? I was messing around with it but shit, i need a chroni to get some accurate readings!
