Good Points

£150 is a good price for what you get, 56mm objective lense gives great light gathering and field of view, 30mm body tube gives very clear images in dawn and dusk shooting, Milldots are accurate for hold over and under + windage, The adjustments are very precise, Parralex adjustment makes range finding accurate to a few yards

Bad Points

16X magnification can be hard to get used to unsupported but you will get used to it eventually and it will make you a better shot in the long run

General Comments

I'll keep this review short lol

This scope is a very good scope for field target and pest controll. The PX adj makes range finding accurate so you don't have an excuse for missing and the optics on the scope are very clear if you get the focus right which is simple to do with the side wheel. The supplied scope covers and sun shade are helpfull becuase they keep you're lenses safe without using those annoying elasticated dealies that come with Hawke scopes that get in the way. The adjustmets for elevation and windage are very good and you can get you're shots exactly on you're crosshair easily and accuratly.
Finally this scope is apparently certified to be used on centre fire rifles which means they are tough.

In conclution I would reccomend this scope to a field target and hunter entusiast alike if you have the cash on board

    I would have thought that this kind of magnification for freestanding field use would be near useless, unless you use a bipod or rest of some sort.

    This kind of magnification just amplifies what we would generally recognize as "camera shake", to the point where the field of view is so unsteady it's like watching an earthquake.
    I suggest the AGS S.W.A.T. 16X56 Milldot Side Wheel Parralex ADJ telescopic sight is used for specialized long-range use with a bipod, and not for the average vermin hunter.

    I find that the extra magnification can be a trouble in field use however I am used to it,

    I sold my AGS a while ago now and since moving back to 6x magnification scopes I have found that I am far more steady than I ever was.
