Own a high end airsoft sniper rifle and scope. To be used for competitive shooting, will this unit work on .177 cal., please advise ??

It will work on any caliber as long as a magnet will stick to the end of a barrel. (Steel). I own one and it works great at getting you on paper with on shot.
333121
I can put it this way. I have used it on .223 and the magnet is very strong.

If the mussel of your barrel is cut in a plane perpendicular to the centerline of the bore, it should work great. It will save ammo when sighting in a new weapon.
333123
Yes. It will on any rifle or shotgun. It does not require an arbor, but attaches to end of barrel with an extremely strong magnet.
333124
This works with any weapon that has a steel barrel. All it requires is something for the magnet to stick to.

Agree with Jim. Designed to get you on paper to reduce ammo wasting during sighting.

I have two of these scopes and use one on a bolt action airsoft sniping rifle, and the other on an hpa powered airsoft rifle. No issues thus far and have owned one for over 2 years.

The pistol is intended for standard .177 cal metal BBs. If you use plastic BBs they must be the same caliber. The fps will increase but the accuracy and penetration charactersitics will degrade due to the less weight of plastic.

It works great. I have it on my DPMS Model A-15. Don't forget to get the matching rear sight. However, you can't use the pair with a scope. Maybe with an ultra high scope mount if available and you would want a scope very high.

Well it would work great butt and is a good scope but it has pre measured mil dots on recital for .223 ballistics .meaning you don't have to adjust scope for yardage you just use lower dot on cross hairs for determined range of target so your sighted in from 100 to 500 yards without moving elevation on scope. 7.62x39 has a different drop in trajectory thus making mil dots Un affective but if sighted in to your ak at a hundred yard you can adjust elevation on scope to your yardage specifications but yes its a great scope but I would check out other options for 7.62x39 caliber. Hope this helps try maybe a vortex crossfire 2 or weaver kaspa same basic price just set up for open range of calibers.

I have one on my 308 "sniper" and so far no problem.I would advise you to remember you're dealing with an inexspensive Chinese scope and if you have real concerns about real combat applications you might want to invest in a Leupold or other high line scope.

Hello Carol, My limited experience with the scope so far has been great, but I'm using it on an AR hunting rifle. It works really well as advertised. I would consider it fine for use on either the M1A or 700 tactical applications with no expected issues. My only recommendation would be to to order replacement BDC elevation dials for your specific or favorite 308 Win/7.62 NATO loads. The AR scope typically comes with the .223/5.56 dial calibration. You can order replacement dials from Leupold's Custom Shop, I got one for my 6.8 SPC hunting load. Hope this helps!

I have both .177 and 22 cal love them. However depending on how you plan on using your rifle I suggest 1st. get rid of the crappy scope. I installed a UTG 3X9x40 with illuminated GBR mill dot reticle around $70.00 (Optical Planet). Second replace the trigger with a GTX adjustable $30.00 (Air Guns of Arizona) you will be amazed with the difference. If you have to make a choice go with the trigger. I am thinking about adding a sling as these rifles are heavy which is good.Please let me know how things work out.Semper FiMolon Labe CHS USMCL

You will have no issues with this scope with what you're trying to do. I use it for seeing the holes of 223/556 @ 100 yrds, no splatter. This scope is the real deal for that price.

I can't say for sure but I have heard a few people saw they had the same scope on a 50 cal and it seemed to do just fine. I can say that the scope is built like a tank and should handle the recoil just fine . I hope this helps .

I would not use this scope on a .223. The one i purchased was very cheap and did not work well at all. It would be perfect for airsoft but not the real thing.

It will work with any Caliber up to 50 Cal. with the proper cal. tip installed on the end. The only issue would be if it were used on a pistol with too short of barrel. I have an AR-15 in 9mm with a 8.5" barrel and it worked with that. In this case I was using it to roughly sight in a Red Dot sight. It is good for getting your scope on paper for the final sighting.

As I understand things, the answer is two fold. First, the sight is a mil dot scope so it functions like any other mil dot and therefore, if you use the mil dot tables, it will work with any caliber gun. But, second, the turret for .223, 55 gr, 3100 fps can be swapped out for a .308 if you will provide Leupold with the details of bullet weight, fps for the particular ammo, etc. I've read that someone did this for $60. I have an email in to them for details. But again, it's a mil dot scope so the appropriate tables will work fine with just a little more work involved.

Bought mine on sale 2 yrs ago at Wally's. Came with .177 and .22 barrels. Easy enough to check - just open the box!...Recommend you replace scope. I swapped for a Barska 2-7x32 Air Gun Scope. EXCELLENT pellet gun for the money, especially with a better scope mounted. Really nice wood furniture too. Using wadcutter pellets, I can hit a bottle cap mounted SIDEWAYS - OFFHAND at the 10 meter competition distance on a regular basis!!! To the reviewer who said it was a piece of junk - suggest he read the break-in period info and practice a little more. :-) Performance smooths out at about 300 rounds during which time, I found that wadcutters work best for mine - YMMV.

Im guessing you want to use it for varmint hunting. It would work good on any rifle used for that purpose and it's a descent scope for the money. I have mine on a Savage B-mag 17WSM, and it works great.

Yes, I use this for .223 at 100 yds on a white/ black silhouette. Haven't tried further but I'd guess with 20/20 vision could probably use this scope for out to 150 yds. Biggest problem is the short stand, I usually just hold it and stabilize my arms with the ground
