Will this scope work on a break barrel .177 caliber air rifle?

The scope is not the problem, its the mounts. you have to find a scope mount that will fit your barrel diameter. The mount needs to fit your barrel and also be 32mm on the scope side. Hope this helps

Should work ok with the right mount. Not real familiar with "break barrels" but as long as this gun has a scope mount it should work. I put mine on a .22 cal and had to fit it to the smaller mount as this scope is most commonly used on high power rifles.

Does the .177 have scope mounts above the receiver (the section of the gun that the trigger is attached to), or does it have pre-tapped screw holes in the receiver to mount a scope plate (such as a Weaver)? Try doing a Google search of the make and model of the .177, see if you can find an owner's manual, which may have info re: mounting a scope.

Yes, I am currently using this on my .177 cal. air rifle. Note: the laser is difficult to see in daylight. I use mine at night for predators on my farm. It works great.

Sorry I cannot be of any help in answering your question. I put the mount on a Remington .177 air rifle.

First you will have to measure the dia. of the barrel of the air gun at the location you expect to mount the rail. If the measurement falls in between the dimensions given as to the size opening of the single rail, it will work fine.

If the scope you are using now is losing its zero due to vibration, I would expect better results from this Nikon scope. However, David brings up a very important point about break-barrel air rifles. It is inherent in their design that the scope is likely to lose alignment with barrel during regular use and require frequent zeroing.

I dont know. This works great for break barrel guns where you have direct access to the barrell.

Yes it should work just fine. This scope is made for the backwards recoil from airguns.

I have mounted this scope on two 22 rifles and the customers have been satisfied with the results . You will need to have a picatinny rail on the gun to mount the scope and if it does there should be no problem with this type of scope on the air soft gun, plus the price is reasonable

The short answer is yes, and it would probably serve just fine on such a rifle. You'll need the right rings for the scope and you'll need to mount the scope base onto the rifle. A little research will get you the right information.

no, it work on break open air rifles only. I would think the pellets would tumble in and may get stuck backwards.

I don't know about your air rifle but It is designed for high powered rifles and it works fine with a .308 cal bolt action rifle.

Break-barrel Air Rifles are all one-pump action rifles, I believe. A friend of mine has this exact Ruger Air Magnum .177 and you can only cock it one time.

I'm not 100 % sure. The supplied mounting rings make the scope sit very low on the rifle, might not allow the action to operate properly

It would be a great scope for that, works well on my .22 rimfire, so an air rifle would be no problem. You will almost certainly need different scope rings.

I've had this scope installed on magnum spring rifles such as the rws 350 and they do hold on pretty well on spring Airguns. Just be sure to use a 1 piece base instead of rings and you'll be fine. Jc

I don't know about the .177 but it certainly has a enough power to do what an air gun should do....it takes a while to site it in but powerful!!

This scope has worked well on a. 7.62X51 rifle, it should handle an air rifle with ease.
