scope mounts

[tapps]

looking at a good quality set of scope mount's for an air arms s410 carbine, the scope which i will be fitting is a hawke eclipse 6-24x50 SF,it has a 30mm tube, which make & height would be the best choice,i'm getting the rifle in a week's time, looking forward to getting the scope mount's sorted before hand.

Have a look at the sportsmatch mount range. Not the cheapest but ideal mounts.
Personally I have fixed sportsmatch high mounts on my S410 carbine, carrying an MTV viper 6-24 x 56 scope. Quite a big scope.
I could have used medium mounts but the high mounts suited me better.
I've never tried low mounts on it.

Have a look at BKL mounts, single strap is all you need on a PCP
BKL 300 these are mediums, and will clear the magazine easily
Should be ok for 50mm objective on an S410, though why you need a 50mm is beyond me ?

I always used SportsMatch until I found these, much prefer the BKL with their central aligning, nice mounts

I agree with Roger about the 50mm objective.
I only use mine on my gun because I got it virtually free. However I mentioned it to highlight the mounts are quite caplable of being used with the bigger scopes.

i have had several rifle's & scopes in the past, whats the problem with having a 50mm objective on the S410 CARBINE!!!!! i have several scope's in my gun cupboard ,all have a 50mm objectives cant warrant buying another.each to there own.

I'm not knocking you for having them on your guns. There's nothing wrong with having 50mm objective scope on a PCP rifle- I have 1 on mine and it works for me.
However I think Roger was alluding to the fact that a PCP doesn't need a scope with a 50 mm objective lens on it. But like you say each to their own.
I hope you get sorted

Hi tapps, wasn't meaning to offend you, the standard A/A stock doesn't lend itself easily to 50mm scopes especially using high mounts, but if you can get a proper cheek weld to see down it, then fair play.
If not an adjustable cheek piece would be the way to go, which is what I had to do, and that was with a Mamba Lite 44mm obj , but as you say, each to their own, gun fit is everything . Rog

bloody hell , I'm in trouble then with a 4-16x56 scope or the 8-32x56 one .

I'm sure both are on 30mm medium sportsmatch mounts (any mounts will do as long as they are not ebay shit for £5 ), I like the scope to be close to the barrel .

no offence taken,

i must have without looking 6 scopes in the cupboard, all with 50mm objective's, the hawke eclipse 6-24x50 is the one i will use.

if its no good i'll look for something with maybe a 44mm objective.
