Hawke Airmax 30 FFP 4-16x50 SF, AMX IR, 1/10 MRAD, 30mm

I really like the quick functioning dial switch for the illuminated reticle for nighttime hunting. First Focal plane eliminates the need to calculate ballistics. Know what your ammunition does at specific distances. The scope eliminates hold over errors due to magnification. Parallax adjustment and magnification is smooth. Built in optics covers are awesome. Simply the best scope I own. I currently have over 20 various Hawke scopes and this is the best. Super clear glass, Reticle has proven effective in holdover use. I can quickly go from 65 yards to 15 with both zoom and parallax adjustments.

I really cannot find anything I would suggest.

Price may seem high, but once you use this scope, it shows its immediate value. I use it on my FX DRS .25 cal. Perfect combination. Reticle is very visible at low magnification and coupled with illuminated feature, low light is not an issue.

Excellent quality scope at a great price. I was left a Airmax 30 3-12x50 by a family member who passed. It was fogged up. I was prepared to pay for the repairs. Hawke sent me a email with an RSA number. Within ten days of sending it off I received a brand new in box 4-16x50 Airmax 30 WA SF! For free! You can’t beat that kind of customer service. I can’t recommend them enough! I’ve already ordered my wife a red dot from Hawke. Thank you so much Hawke! Customer for life! The scopes clear as a bell. The IR works amazingly! Positive clicks for adjusting zero. This scope is the best I’ve ever owned! The coyotes at my second fence line don’t stand a chance! Again thank you Hawke and Pyramid Air for quality products and great customer service! Ben

Nothing!

Hawkes customer service is second to none!!

I put this scope on my favorite rifle, the BSA R10SE, and love it! Lets a lot of light through and the image is amazing. The reticle is easy to see and the adjustable illumination works well also. The scope holds zero so I don't have to worry when I pick up the rifle that it will be "off" if I need to pick off a pest in the yard. The eye box is also pretty awesome. Makes it easy to shoulder the rifle and get into a good position.

It is a bit on the heavy side. The flip up covers are metal as opposed to plastic, which is a good thing, but they are very stiff when you first use them. After a while they seem to loosen up and I like that they give a nice "click" when you close them. Just watch your knuckles until they are broken in a bit!

I plan to use a Hawke scope on all my rifles from now on, and even replace my other scopes with either this scope or other Hawke 50mm scopes. The overall feel of the scope just screams quality, and it is packaged well for shipping.

Out of the box I was a little disappointed because the side focus was very tight to move, I had to put the big wheel on it to move. after a little while it is moving much better. I put it on my M-rod field and target the clarity is very good the adjustment seems to be doing very well.

It seems the scope covers are hard to open. And make the side focus move a little easier.

You may want to get adjustable scope rings for it because if you have to move more than one turn it will not track rite. It says that rite in the instructions.
