Post Subject: Vector scopes

i have just brought a Vector 1.5-6x34 with a 30mm tube. cost me £55 including p&p. The idea was to just try out something new. that was a realistic price and there fore easy to replace when i drop it, note that was "when" and not "if", so i chucked on the CZ Siloutte for a spot of bunny bashing both in the day light and last week under the lamp. now iam hooked and will prob change all my scopes to Vector. Has anyone else had one of these scopes.

Post Subject: Vector scopes

When I started shooting I bought scopes that I thought were the bees knees all around the £50 to £150 range and I must admit for what I was shooting (air rifles and .22lr they were more than capable, but as I advanced into foxing and the .22-250 these scopes at night were sddly lacking especially after about 100yds,my currant scope is a swarovsky 8x50 with a 30mm tube even at three hundred yards in the dimmest of lights you can still tell a fox from a badger or deer.your scope will serve you well on a .22lr as would most of the cheaper ones enjoyand go bash them bunnies.
