Soviet Bazaar HTH-144

The Soviet Bazaar HTH-144 scope really is as good as they claim. having spoken to soviet bazaar about the scope I already owned I was advised that even if I added extra kit i.e. illuminators etc I would not achieve the performance of the hth144. I could have taken that as a guy just trying to sell a product. thinking that the guy sounded sincere I decided to go ahead and purchase one of his scopes and a doubler lens which would give x6 magnification. at £600 he even threw in an illuminator for free! beat that if you can. 2 days later as promised the scope turned up on the door step. keen to try out the scope I fitted it to my theoben rapid 30ft/lb and went out into the garden when it got dark. first shot was 1inch from where I aimed at 50 yards not bad considering I hadn't even zeroed it in yet. having no markings on the scope I thought it could be tricky to zero but anyone who can zero a normal optic shouldn't have any problems zeroing this in a matter of minutes. 5 minutes later I was putting 12 pellets through a 1.5inch hole at 50 yards. this scope really is that good. whether you have a rimfire an fac rated airgun or a 12ft/lb airgun I don't think you could buy a better scope for the money. it really does do what is says on the tin.
