does the scope do OK on an air rifle

We use these on a couple 22LR's. Probably overkill for air rifle - pretty limited range due to low exit velocity. You might be more satisfied with a red dot sight.

I would not advise this scope for a springer or nitro piston. Too much kick with those types of air rifles. My died after less than a hundred shots. For a multipump or PCP it may be fine. Unlike powder burners, springers and nitro pistons have a double recoil which will probably destroy this quickly. Ymmv

it has great visibility, sharp, crisp, worked well on .22LR only one problem, it went out of focus after a couple of uses lens inside turned sideways ?? it was useless after that,other than that no other issues, will not buy again.

Short answer: As long as your rife has a Weaver-type scope mounting rail, yes. It will be fine on an air rifle. However, there are scopes made specifically for air rifles, and I would recommend one of those before ever recommending using a scope on an air rifle that was designed to be used on a real gun.

It probably would but I would only use it in the higher quality ones considering anything under 45$ doesn't have a steady mount spot

Yes, it will work on airsoft rifle but for more accuracy, its better to use a 4x20 scope.

NO...it's true use is for rifles that use smokeless gunpowder ammunition; however this does NOT suggest you can not use it on an air rifle, the only thing is that your air rifle will have a very nice and accurate scope intended for L.R. ammunition rifles( Long Range).

No. There is no mount for a scope on this model. This is a spring fired bb gun more less meant to be a " first" bb gun. A lot of air rifles have mounts for scopes(some models even come with one) for more precision shooting because they can shoot the way more accurate pellet ammunition as well, where this gun is bb only.

Not really. Its scoped for hunting rifle and the natural drop of a round and drop of a bb/pellet are not the same. This scope is also fairly large in size and of a significant weight compared to most other scopes. You should look for air rifle specific scopes they are out there and fairly cheap.

if I were you i would continue looking. this is perfect for an air rifle because of the forward recoil. however on a .223 the recoil is back. air rifle jumps forward. it is just my opinion.

Yes....it will stand up to the big springers....I think these scopes were formerly called Leapers....witch is made for air guns....I had one one a .22 cal.Webely Patriot without any problems

I don't have that particular air rifle but this scope is perfect for most scopes in the $200-$300 range.

not unless you are a skilled gun smith--but you do not need a scope-it shoots very well without one --an excellent air rifle

Didn't work out for me at all. The mounts on that air rifle was very poor. The scope may work better on a deferent rifle. The scope is not much. But it does not cost much. Don't expect much. You should get a better scope.

it should be fine. it's not completely tall enough, but with a scope the worst you might get is a slight blurring of the sight at the bottom of it. most likely you will not see it. I eventually removed the front sight block and but a gas block with a short rail section on, I wanted offset sights so I could tilt the rifle and use iron sights if the shot was to close.

lol I have this on a .308 keltec rfb which kicks way harder than the air rifle. it will be fine. very good scope btw.

Mine has done well for me. I`ve had no problems with it. Good scope for the money.

Yes it does, it even says so in the product description. I have mine mounted on an air rifle.
2214845
Yes it will and do it very well. I have mine on and nitro piston air rifle and it is great.

the nob on the rifle says fifteen yards. but i think this scope is a little overkill for an air rifle.

Yes, but the rifle has a dovetail mount I believe. This is designed to fit a picatinny or weaver rail. Recoil from an air rifle certainly wouldn't be an issue. Works great for my AR 15, and got my scope up higher to install my 45° sights too ;)
