Hawke is a British optics brand with US operations headquartered in Indiana.
Manufactured in China.I have 6 of the Endurance line. Four are 30mm tubes, two are of the older 1" tubes.
Eye relief and glass is great. I have used them on 6mm CM, 250 Sav., 257R, 6.5x55, 30-06, 300 WSM, 35 Whelen and 450 Marlin.
They have held zero and worked perfectly.

Had four. Still have one in the box which might go on a .22. All were purchased deeply discounted. The China connection aside, if paying full price I’d probably look elsewhere. Burris is cheaper and the clicks are better. Trijicon has some lower price options now without illumination too.

Hawkes are popular in Britain. Look for reviews on the sporting sites over there if you’re interested.

The Hawke line is popular with airgunners, as their scopes are rated for air guns. A springer can destroy a high-dollar standard scope, due to weird recoil. I have a Hawke Sidewinder on a 30-06 and it has been real good.


You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.

The latest line-up is much improved. Turret clicks are more positive, glass is much better. Customer service did me right.. I had a sidewinder 6x24x56 that the turrets had stopped locking down consistently. They sent me a brand new scope.
