Can these handle the revers recoil of a brake barrel and still hold the scopes zero?

I don't know that's a lot of pressure. I would go with a little better mount. Four set screws on top opposed to two. It would be fine on a .22 but break barrel have a let of pressure

It would be fine for smaller calibers. I would use something more robust for larger ones.

I've run them on a brake over for a few years with no zero issues. As long as you have a quality scope you should be in good shape.

I agree with the other gentlemen. The heavier the recoil the more something negative can and will happen, (Murphy's Law) just when you need your A-game going for you. However, with all that's been said, give it a try and keep us all posted. I wish you luck!

I haven't received mine yet but I don't believe they will lessen the recoil any. my raging bull has a built in compensator those don't really do much either, but they look cool. I have not seen any product that does buffer recoil. I was unable to find grips on amazon to fit my 444 as it has round butt, meaning mounting screw is on bottom. I did find Hogue grips on planet optics that do fit it. problem they ar 107.00. no grip will lessen recoil.........

Yeah but they may not handle the recoil I mounted this laser on a blowback air pistol and the laser kept creeping off

Yes they will I own these and have them on my 308 ar10 they work great couldn't of ask for better quality plus they fold up under my scope scope with no problem then hit the button they flip out and stay zero never had the rezero them after about 3 thousand RDS through it and plenty of mag dumps I give this product 10 out of 10

this is not able to hold zero on anything larger than a 223. I installed this on my AR10 and after trying to zero I figured out that the scope was not the problem it was the levers that attach the mount to rifle were coming loose. I would get the regular mounts with the Allan wrench attachments or the flat head attachments.

Yep, and the ghost ring is awesome.they'll fit on a 1.20 inch muzzleloader barrel so they should fit your application.

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 .

Do not use a scope that is not designed for a air rifle you will damage it. Spring piston air rifles recoil in reverse and the scope was not designed to work that way. BSA makes a decent air rifle scope that holds perfect zero

The mounts will work on 2240 they will go on the actual barrel. I use that same sight and also use a BSA red dot scope on the mounts. I did put a thin peace of rubber around my barrel to keep the mounts from marking it and to help keep the mounts from slipping with heavy shooting.

Funny I actually use these mounts with a primary arms 4-14x44 scope on my 5.56 AR. They work great. Crazy value. I feel strongly that they would work well on a 308 win. There is ample rail gripping surface area on these mounts. The quick release crossbar is rounded so dont rest it against the rail before tightening or it could mar your rails. Center the crossbar between the rails, tighten correctly and you should be good to go.-G

It should. The second scope has worked fine. My first one cracked the rear reticle in three shots. A .35 Remington has a pretty good "pop" for recoil ,but, no more than a 308. I've shot both & they are about the same in the recoil department . Worst case scenario , you buy the scope & shoot it like I did mine to zero it & it fails . You contact Reds gear & they'll replace it. That's what I did. My new one has done just fine.

I think so, I am using them on a Mark III Hunter model and they seem to work just fine. I have to say I haven't actually fired the pistol with the scope mounted yet but I cycled the slide and everything cleared by a fairly wide margin. The worst case is you will have to return them if they won't work for you so you are risking a few dollars for the return postage.

I can not say 100% yes, but they should work just fine. I have never encountered a problem using these in any firearms.

Recoil shouldn't be an issue, I swapped it on a 30-06 and it worked fine...I might be concerned about the eye relief if it were mounted too close to the stock on the shotgun though.

Should work fine. My BSA scope is mounted on a Mosin Nagant M44 and it works fine it can take the recoil!

I have the scope on a 22, I would worry about how well it would handle the recoil. But for the money it's worth a shot

these particular ones will not. they would be too wide since they are made for a much thicker gun.
