We plan to use it almost exclusively for 22ga rifles. Will it be OK? A rival Hyskor DLX will apparently not handle such low recoil.

It would be great for what your using it for. I use it for my high powered rifle's and it's the best on the market. It's all metal and will not move. I also bought the sand bags to lay in the tray on the bottom. .........You want be sorry if you purchase the Caldwell..........Happy shooting.......Dale

The lead sled will work quite well with a 22 cal rifle or any other. The low recoil will help you to focus on hitting target with very close groups. Just make certain the sled is weighted or secured with a tie down device to increase your fun and accuracy,have fun shooting with the lead sled.

This is meant for a Mossberg 500, so probably not. Since you are talking about a .22 rifle, it wouldn't risk it. You should search for one that is specifically for your gun.

Jim, I mounted this scope on my .300 BLK and I have about 1,000 round through it and it hasn't moved. I sighted it in the day I got it and haven't adjusted it since and it's always been dead on. I know .308 is a little more recoil but I think you should be fine with it. I've tested this scope pretty thoroughly. Good luck, hope you get it.

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

Yes kind of an overkill for a 22 rifle but will work fine, i've had one mounted on a 223 for a year and has never lost its zero

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 !

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.

Go to the limbsaver website, if it's the right size sure. I know it will handle the recoil fine. But if you are asking me if this is the correct size for your rifle - I don't know. I bought it for my benelli m2 with the comfortech stock. If you can't tell from the website - call them . They are great people to talk to. Very helpful. This thing is magic for taking the kick away.

It had no problem on a Tikka 30-06 shooting 200 grain bullets, total weight of rifle only 7 pounds with scope, I bet it would work just fine...

It works fairly well with 22 lr. It will definitely swing to register a hit with an airgun, but I doubt if the reset feature will work. The red paint has held up ok, but the yellow bull's-eyes are stickers that don't last but for just a few shots & they're gone. I have been satisfied and have enjoyed plinking at it with my 22 guns

I would not use this on anything that has greater recoil than a .22cal, they are heavy, made in China, and come in a cheap soft plastic sleeve. These are not high quality mil dot scopes, if you want to look cool but don't care how well they work, then, put one on anything you have.

This hits hard. 50-60 yards consistent. Depending on ammo you can get about 1300 fps with the high velocity pellets. I shoot the heavier lead that runs about 900-950 subsonic but it is way more accurate and packs a punch. Most 22lr rounds are 1250fps but would carry lead further out. It will shoot the 100yds no problem but accuracy just will not be there. I have a ruger .177 that doesn't shoot as fast as this one and they are both way more than the daisy 10 pumps of old

I don't think it would be a good match at all. Even if it was, I don't think it will be durable enough for extended shooting. For a 223, it has done well.

it should work for anything not smaller than .22lr. i've used mine on .22, 5.7x28, and 9mm.the product is designed to accommodate bores ranging from .22 to .45, so anything that falls within that range should be okay.

I see no problem. I would use a higher power version(6X16 or higher) since your range will be a lot further than an air rifle.

I highly doubt that the reticle will work well with a 270, unless you make yourself a dope sheet that shows the distance the 270 round falls in each of the circles. As you know, 22lr falls much quicker, so it would be an ordeal trying to figure the drop of a 270 using a 22lr reticle. As far as the recoil messing up a Nikon? Unlikely, but I just don't know on that. I hope that answers your question.
