This example shows how to use the HWA version of Multimedia Fusion 2 to create a decent sniper scope. It uses Looki's Hole and Lens shaders available here:
All of Looki's shaders:

The ones used should be from these two links below:

The concept is to have three layers working together. The lens layer that is a round active object textured darker around the edges with a white centre. The lens shader is applied to this to give a nice effect. In this exampel i think i over did it a little too much but this way you can see exactly what the shader does. Then a crosshair layer above this so that it is not affected by the shader. Then have an overlay that we apply the hole shader to and add a bit of simple code to have that hole appear at our mouse location.
This method avoids the old technique of having a huge black square the size of 4 frames with a hole drawn in the middle.
