I need opinions on mounting this scope on my 45/70, would it hold up to the recoil?

I put on a Rossi 35-70 and I have ran a couple of boxes of shells through it and it's held up fine.

I checked a reloading reference book since I wasn't familiar with this caliber. I mounted on a CZ 512 22 WMR and it's a good fit. Rossi 35-70 is a much lighter bullet than your 45-70 and my book doesn't reveal 35-70 chamber pressure. I can't say, wish I were smarter. Good luck.

Though I am extremely impressed with this scope I myself have mounted it to a ruger 10/22 . Very little recoil but for the 22 it a perfect match

I have it mounted under all my semi auto hand guns and pictanny rail assault rifles they are recoil resistant thus far no problems. Very bride at 150 lumens!!

I don't foresee any problem with a good set of mounts. I have one on my .243 for years and have had no problem. I wouldn't hesitate putting it on my 30.06. BTW - I like the Tasco better than my Leupold in low light conditions.

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

I had it on ar-15 and it worked fine, no issues, hard to say on a 12 gauge, but I bet itll hold up, for 304 its worth it, reticle as good as any

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

I'm sure it would be fine, recoil-wise. The rings nikon makes for it mount on picatinny rail sections. This scope is quite compact though and I'm not sure it would be long enough to go over the action. The 3-9 may be a better choice, as I'm sure that one will (had mounted on a savage 30-06)

ours is mounted with high rings on a 308 precision rifle...so far after several hundred rounds we have had zero problems. it is made for big heavy recoil rifles... seems to be holding ok. 3/4 inch per click at 300 yds...have not shot it at longer range...hope this helps

Yes. It withstands much heavier recoil than that from my guns. It will be great. If I could have changed one thing I would have got the x50, but if your wanting clear, crisp, bright, lightweight optics, this one will be great.

Mine is attached to a .50 Beowulf and holds zero with a Vortex scope. Yes it will hold zero on a 45-70.

The rings that come with it are a bit high for my taste. I am currently using two sets of cheap low profile rings without any issues. My scope is holding up fine on my scout mounted mauser's recoil. Should work just fine on your Springfield

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.

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 have it on a 300 RUM that recoils harder than any 50 BMG I've shot and it is holding up fine.

Yes this scope will take the recoil. This is a very heavy rugged product. Be careful on the scope height. You will need a way to adjust your cheek weld. The company recommends a 0 moa rail to mount this on. I hope this help you out.

I have this scope and its really nice, its more like a rubber textured film it very scuff and scratch resistant. Have mine on a savage .270 handles recoil just fine. Nice optic for the price.
