Will this handle the recoil of .308/7.62x51?

I've shot a wide range on caliber weapons (.22LR to 30-06) with this sight and never had an issue. UTG make a really robust sight system.

I think it will probably do fine. For the price it seems pretty well made. i currently have mine on a 9mm carbine but i dont see any reason why it could not handle more recoil.

Absolutely! I've shot a 50 cal muzzleloader, 308, 12g and even a crossbow from mine! The tray to put a weight plate is very convenient, removes and hop the sled has due to recoil absorption.

I haven't tried it on that specific rifle but it couldn't withstand the kick on my mosin nagant and since the 7.62x54r is similar in size to a .308 I wouldn't recommend this scope. It's definitely worth spending a bit more money to get a more resistant scope.

Should work well as long as you have a Picatinny rail to mount it or can use the adapter includedI used it on both my AR-15 .223 and Savage Rifle in .308 had no problem with either one

Honestly I'm not sure, I don't know if the .308 butt stock on any ar platform is different from a .223/5.56

100% yes! I have mine on a AK 47 that shoots a 762x39 and it has heavy recoil. I zeroed it 1 time n been shooting w it for months now w no movement at all.. Its the best dot for the price all day. You well be very happy w it..

I am using it with an AK-47 Pistol in 7.62x39. No idea on recoil limit - ask MFR

With the recoil of a 308, I would recommend a higher end mount. This one is great for a 223. I don't know how long it will last on a 308.

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

I'm not positive. I've only used it on my .308 so far. I have a .223 to use it on and I'm sure it will work with that. I can't guarantee that it will be I feel like it would. It has several bushings of various sizes as depicted in the picture. I've only used the next to smallest if memory serves right.

I don't know about mount for it but I have mine in a Ruger .308 scout rifle and it handles that recoil and stats zeroed. Hope that helps.

I do not believe the "recoil" would bother it at all. It is approx. 7/8 inches in diameter and very sturdy.

Should work just fine. Same gun just different caliber. Will nhold a few less rounds due to the fact 308 is a larger round.

Mine moved around quite a bit but it was on a 308 that jerks alot. If you have a built in pic rail it would be fine.

Didnt have it when I did have to sight in my Gamo Whisper, but I did use it to zero my Marlin XL7 in 30-06. It handled the kick from that mule just fine, air rifle should be no issue. As you may already know, break action air rifles actually push forward when they recoil due to the momentum of the piston slamming forward, which will just lock it onto the rest even tighter. My one recommendation is to fill the stand (it has openings for this) with heavy sand or lead shot to add mass and keep it in place better. Mine weighs about 15lbs now, filled with a fine lead shot from sandbag weights.

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

I have mine on a Savage model 10 chambered in .308 and it has done very well. It has held zero through hundreds of rounds.
