Will this scope handle the recoil of a 50 BMG rifle? Also is there enough adjustment both elevation and wind age for a 50 cal

I have it on a 300 RUM that recoils harder than any 50 BMG I've shot and it is holding up fine.

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 have not used it on anything that large, but it seems solid enough to work on a .50. There is plenty of adjustment, assuming you boresite the scope before firing.

It is a very durable scope, so it might handle .50BMG. As for windage and elevation, I think it may do fine out to 1000 yards where .50BMG is accurate to, though 2 1/2 mile shots have been made with .50 BMG.

I use it on a .308 and have it on a picatinny rail system so I can remove it. After over 200 rounds, multiple removals, storage, transport, and various bumps it still holds true. It really depends which .50 bmg you put it on. If a Barret it should be fine. With others I don't know. As for adjustment it has a lot. Will it compensate for drop at 2000 m? Probably not. 1000m? Definitely.

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

Its 3-9*40 with elevation and wind age. It is good for rifles in 308 and 30-06 up to 480 meters.

Good Lord! my 30-06 has the recoil many times that of any air rifle i could imagine! it survived shooting a fork horn last year, four point this year.. as well as just for fun shooting, good scope for the $$$

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.

I would recommend this scope. I use it on a .308 and it holds under a 1 inch group at 100. I've also shot out past 400 and had equally accurate results. The reticle is very crisp and the magnification covers a good range.

To answer the direct question, both windage and elevation adjustments seem to work fine. I shoot at an indoor range and generally take care of my stuff. This is a very light weight unit and probably is not meant to survive rough treatment for very long. For what I wanted, an economical way to scope my hand gun scores, this works fine. If you need something more robust, I agree with one of the other statements, buy something more heavy duty. Hope this helped.

The scope has about three inches of eye relief, more than enough for the recoil of a .30 caliber rifle like the Mosin Nagant, the scope is actually rated for the .50 BMG. The scope seems to be well built -- I like mine a lot ------

Yes it is a good scope for the money . The 3030 has a moderate recoil . With the 50 lens you will need high mounts or see thru mounts to install on a lever action rifle

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.

I mounted my Accushot scope on a Gamo Bull Whisper Extreme 177 caliber to test the strenght of the internals of the scope. After 750-1000 rounds it still is very accurate at 40 yards. After my test, I would not mind putting it on a 300 win mag. As a hunting scope in low light conditions it is good for the money. I like the lighted rec.

Manufacturer doesn't recommend putting it on anything over .30 caliber. However, the mil-dot reticle can be used with .50 caliber, but I don't think this scope would hold up to that kind of shock.

Sure, I have mine mounted on a 300 win. Mag. No issues with recoil, I'm sure it could handle the recoil of 30-06

Well I beleive it depends at what range your shooting at. 100 - 150 yrds? Should be no problem. 200? Maybe the max. But I beleive for the cost its okay for that cal. But I would pay a little more for a scope that is more rugged and capable of a longer range. it would be worth it in the long run.

It works good on my 5.56 AR, but think you may want something with a dual ring mount for heavier calipers. It's a good scope that has a quality build, you may want to check Krueger's web site to see what else they offer, they do have other types of scopes available so you may find something of interest and then you can see if you can find it on Amazon.

It held up to the recoil of my 308, 270wsm, and 243 win. I imagine, it shouldn't have any problem holding up to an air rifle. Beware, this thing is huge. It might look a little odd on your air gub

It is fully adjustable for windage and elevation. As with any quality sight, you will need to sight it in for the distance you are shooting at.
