DBS "Elite" 3-9x40 AO IR MD Scope Review - Value-for-money riflescope
I recently bought a Leapers clone badged by DB Schietsport, the Dutch airgunning shop where I bought my HW85. It's called the DBS Elite 3-9X40, has an AO ring on the objective lens, and an illuminated reticle (red or green, five brightness settings for each) with a mildot centre to it. It uses a one-inch tube, and costs 79.95 Euros (55.90 sterling, US$85) plus 20 Euros shipping, for a total of 99.95 Euros, 69.90 sterling/US$106.
So why did I buy it? Well, I wanted a sturdy scope that would put up with the kick of the 16 fpe HW85 without falling to pieces, but which has a finer reticle than the Hawke Sport HD that I've used on the rifle to date. The Sport is a solid scope, and has retained its zero, but the blobby mildot markings are a little too large to shoot small targets with precision at or beyond 33 yards.
