So, is this scope rated for airgun use? Will it stand up to a big nitro piston/springer like a .22 or .25 cal?

Yes....it will stand up to the big springers....I think these scopes were formerly called Leapers....witch is made for air guns....I had one one a .22 cal.Webely Patriot without any problems

this scope is mounted on a 30 cal rifle and is working as it should. it is an inexpensive scope so the optics aren't the greatest. for the money its ok. hope this helps

I haven't seen any caliber ratings on the paperwork but I have mine on a .308 and it handles it great . It seems to be just as sturdy as my leopold that I have on a 7 mm ultra mag . I would recommend this scope to anyone . It's made like a tank !

Not so sure. This is an air rifle scope and it is set up for air gun recoil. My scope is on a gamo air rifle. Better check out scopes made for .22 regular rifles.

Shawn I just got this scope last week but I haven't gone out to fire it yet. There is an adjustment knob that you can turn to sharpen objects further away but I've only done that in my house to about 15 yards, as I just wanted a scope to shoot bottles of water at about 20 yards, so it will be perfect for that. I haven't tried to focus it further yet to see it's limitations. On the box it says PM 4x32 CB so 4x32 ... If I wanted to use my AR for hunting or longer range I'd put my Nikon BDC recticle on it :-)

If you mount this on a spring piston air rifle,the warrenty will no doubt be lost as will the scope. My RWS would destroy this in about 100 shots. Just a friendly warning.

I see no problem. I would use a higher power version(6X16 or higher) since your range will be a lot further than an air rifle.

Didn't work out for me at all. The mounts on that air rifle was very poor. The scope may work better on a deferent rifle. The scope is not much. But it does not cost much. Don't expect much. You should get a better scope.

if I were you i would continue looking. this is perfect for an air rifle because of the forward recoil. however on a .223 the recoil is back. air rifle jumps forward. it is just my opinion.

It comes with a very nice Ruger made scope that is made for air rifles.In case you are unaware, do not use a firearm scope on an air rifle unless it is rated for it.

I wear bifocals and also use this indoors and outdoors, and find it to be quite a good scope out to 200 yards for 22 caliber and up. Anything farther this isn't what you would want.

Although this scope is "shockproof" ... airguns have special scopes designed for them for a reason... The recoil is totally different on airguns and the parallax is set for 50 yards.. Not 100 yards like a true rifle scope (as this is)... You should have no problems with this scope at all.

Nice scopes at a nice price but most likely no. I had two of these destroyed by a Gamo Silent Cat [1250 fps break barrel springer] similar to your rifle. Both scopes lost elevation function from high recoil even though I had installed a droop compensation heavy duty scope mount with scope but don't know howw it stop pin and used Loctite 242 on all screws. Hammers sells a springer rated scope but am not familiar with it .

As stated, this rifle is intended for use on an air gun. Meaning that the scope is made with a re-enforcement on both sides of the lenses, so that they can handle the the dual direction vibrations of air powered guns. (They have recoil both forward and backward, which WILL ruin any scope that is not meant for a air powered gun.) So, yes, this would be a good scope for your springer. I have a VERY high powered break barrel, spring powered air rifle, and am going to purchasing a scope similar to this for it, from a online air gun store. (It's also offered on Amazon for cheaper than the air gun store. This is the ideal scope for a springer-- Hawke Sport Optics Sport HD IR AO Riflescope 3-9x40 Mil Dot HK3015--- very well made and reliable scopes and will do just fine on any air gun or high powered rifle.)

It is a great scope on my CO2 rifle. The blogs mention springers are are hard on all all scopes. Discuss with UTG. They have excellent cutomer support.

I have never personally used this scope with that caliber but it held up nicely with 7mm-08. In my opinion a very good scope for the price.

I purchased it for my Crossman Nitro Venom .22 Air Rifle. It is an excellent air rifle scope.
