can this withstand extreme heavy reverse recoil

Yes, I believe so. The Nikon is a very well made scope. If you do have an issue with it, they are lifetime guaranteed. This scope has the brightest/clearest optics I have ever experienced in a rifle scope. It is amazing out in the field, especially at dusk and dawn when in low light situations.

If your question is in reference to using this scope on a break barrel air gun, either a springer or a piston type propulsion system, then find another scope - one that is air gun rated! If you plan to use it on any conventional rifle, or a precharged pneumatic (PCP) air gun, it should function very well.

The mount will stand true on a 308. I would suggest that you get a scope that can withstand the recoil.

I put it on an air venturi Bronco and so far okay. It is supposed to handle the recoil. I haven't put many rounds through mine around a hundred only so maybe someone else with more use will chime in.

Yes, it should be fine. I have used this on a number of break barrel rifles, and it has held up well to the dual recoil, and should have no problems.

Yes I have it mounted on a 5.56 with a muzzle brake. Not alot of recoil but more than a .22. You may have a bad switch.

My guess would be that it would be OK, but I can't say 100% that it would stand up to years of recoil from a .300 Win Mag. I shoot heavy loads in my .45-70, and I find that lower-end scopes usually don't last long under that kind of beating. If you're planning on a lot of shooting with the .300WM, I'd suggest moving up to a Leupold or something equivalent.

Probably not. It has several weights positioned throughout the stock, which are removable with some careful screwdriver skills, but at its full weight the gun is quite heavy.

Yes. That's what i mounted it on. It GREATLY reduced the recoil. You won't be disappointed.

Hey brother. I'm not too sure if it will withstand the recoil of the .223/5.56. I have an MP 15-22. I returned this optic and bought the TRS 25 red dot with the UTG medium riser. It cowitnesses perfectly with the Magpul BUIS. This a great combo that's effective and very cost effective too. Spend a little extra cash if you can. Don't look to this Leapers sight.

I have used this on my ar and sks no problems with this light really rock solid...you shouldn't have recoil problems

In all fairness, all makers list by heir scopes as being recoil proof, but never list what might be a max caliber. I would think with all my testing with several different calibers I would not be worried at all . It's a great scope at a good price point and I feel you would be fine. Like everything we buy, we take a gamble, and with the background of this maker you should be good to go ! If I am wrong feel free to blast me accordingly !

It is a great scope but I don't know us it would hold up to the 30-06 recoil. Sorry I could not help you.

Yes I have mine mounted on a mini 30 Picatinny and it can handle that recoil no problem. Great scope.

Sorry I can not say as mine is on a Ruger 10/22 so it hasn't experienced anything so extreme. It works great on my .22.

judyd march10,2013 this sight will absolutely withstand recoil of 12ga.shotgun if mounted on gun receiver. dont mount on barrel of any gun as vibration will quickly destroy it.

Mine could not withstand my M4 carbine with 69 grain loads and very little felt recoil. Sooooooooo I'm going to say no.

Im only shooting .308. It was designed for a spring air rifle which is supposed to have a more damaging 2-way recoil. It does have a warranty if it breaks.
