Will this scope withstand the recoil of a Remington model 700, cal. 308?

For sure, I've had one on a .308 for about a year now and it's been a champ so far.

yes it is a rifle scope! I shoot a .30-06 and I switch it to a .300 Win Mag. no problems at all. if you put a doubler on the front make sure that you go with the Yukon NV lens. Don't ever put any kind of camera lens on it if you use with a big bore rifle because I have heard that the sony lens that is popular has fallen apart.

It should. The second scope has worked fine. My first one cracked the rear reticle in three shots. A .35 Remington has a pretty good "pop" for recoil ,but, no more than a 308. I've shot both & they are about the same in the recoil department .Worst case scenario , you buy the scope & shoot it like I did mine to zero it & it fails . You contact Reds gear & they'll replace it. That's what I did. My new one has done just fine.

Yes it will handle a .308 easily (Especially since it is gas operated) I have an N750 and an N550 and they sit on top of bolt action Remington 700's both in .30-06Springfield. No problems at all...

I have killed a lot of deer using this scope on a 30-06. Never had to re-zero. Yes, it will hold up to a 308.

I own a couple of these scopes. I have them mounted on low recoil rifles such as a .243 and 5.56. Im not sure how well it could withstand the recoil of a 30-06. sorry

I have also used this scope on my rem700 in 308. Holds a great zero and has taken a decent amount of abuse. The glass and turrets help up great.

I have mine on a Savage model 10 chambered in .308 and it has done very well. It has held zero through hundreds of rounds.

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

Yes, but the ballistics of a .270 and .223 are substantially different and the bullet drop calculations built into the scope will be off.

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 $$$

I can say it is sturdy , I can't say .308 recoil but 9mm is fine I haven't had any complaints and I have used the sight regularly , hope this helps

Yes. The scope is actually sprung airgun rated which means it can hold up to pretty serious and eccentric recoil. It can be used on most rifles with no issues.

I have one on my 308 "sniper" and so far no problem.I would advise you to remember you're dealing with an inexspensive Chinese scope and if you have real concerns about real combat applications you might want to invest in a Leupold or other high line scope.

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.

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 should work fine..But i would look for a bore snake made specifically for a .308 caliber

Probably, however, I would get a scope more designed for heavy recoil. Typically a low power scope . A 45-70 is not a long range rifle .
