Please note an air rifle is different from a regular rifle in than there is a forward and opposite shock to the scope after the piston bounces. Most scopes are reinforced in only one direction.

i have it mounted on my mosin nagant m91/30 that kicks like a mule so for your air rifle its going to be more that you need

I would say that its not the scope, it holds perfect zero on several 22 rifles I have it on. Break barrel air rifles very often have zeroing issues due to the placement of the scope behind the barrel breaking point. When the barrel is opened, and then closed it can shift the barrel enough to cause a point of impact change.

It will work, and do a good job of it. It has a short focus parallax, which is a must for an air rifle scope, and is built tough enough to withstand the forward recoil of a springer rifle. I use mine on my Stoeger X20S to great effect.

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

The rifle has slots to mount a scope. I find it harder to load when a scope is attached.

I had some issues w/this rifle, to simple, cheap scope (could not sight it in) and speed was lower than advertised. I returned it and went with the Gamo Bone Collector Bull Whisper .177 Air Rifle, looks nicer, very powerful, better trigger, somewhat of a silencer. The 4x32 scope is bundle with all the rifles (99% sure) so I bought separately the CenterPoint Illuminated 4-16x40mm Scope.Justed remembered and in case you will buy this set up! The rings from the centerpoint don't fit the rifle but you can use the ones that come with the cheap 4x32, careful when tightening the gamo rings because the screws might break (happened to me).This is all I know, hope it helps!

Airgun scopes are built to withstand a whipping motion that is different from most firearms. It might work, but there are dozens of scopes at or under this price that would be better.

The scope has, what I used to call a Weaver-Type mount on the scope. It can attach to rifles with the appropriate grooves built into the receiver of the rifle; however, the scope mounts recommended for this rifle/scope combination have the mounting screws spaced at the correct distance as the screw holes are on the rifle. Thus the recommended scope(s) will mount on the affixed scope mount perfectly.My great-grandson's Crickett looks good with the combination of rifle/scope mount/scope. I recommend getting the scope mount for mounting the scope.He and I love his rifle/scope for its accuracy and its esthetic looks. The scope has, what I used to call a Weaver-Type mount on the scope.

It comes with a very nice Ruger made scope that is made for air rifles.In case you are unaware, do not use a firearm scope on an air rifle unless it is rated for it.

This is an air gun scope. It's one of the most highly recommended scopes for high powered air rifles such as the RWS Diana 34.

No it won't. It's NOT an air rifle scope. Using it on an air rifle will destroy it's internal working parts within a dozen shots.

you are probably aware of it , but you have hold the "springer" different when shooting ,as compared to any other type of rifle. you can find much info on "how to shoot a springer" on the web

If you mount this on a spring piston air rifle,the warrenty will no doubt be lost as will the scope. My RWS would destroy this in about 100 shots. Just a friendly warning.

I read about this complaint in posts prior to me buying this scope. I did not experience this problem. Mine is mounted on a 1" riser to get above the battle sights. I had it bore sighted at my local gun shop and he thought the scope was fine. I zeroed it at 100yds on my AR15. It was shooting 1.5" groups. As Paul replied it will not compare with the more expensive models but it does a decent job for the price. I do have to get out and shoot again as the last time I went it was shooting almost 3 MOA high. There was a 30mph wind blowing so the next time out I will see if it was the wind or the scope not holding zero. I read about this complaint in posts prior to me buying this scope.

I think so, this scope I have mounted on my mini M 14 rifle, using 223 amo, its kicks kind a hard, first time when was mounted it's just fell of the rifle, had to rebolted much tighter than its was before, no damage to the scope and to this day performs perfect, 100 or 200 yards no problems good scope, I don't know how much shock you want to put it through, but for my rifle performs perfect, BJ.

Yes, this scope is built to take the punishments from an Air rifle or 22 which is also hard on scopes. I have not had any issues with mine thus far (6 months)

The scope is nearly universally mountable, in the case of the bone collector you will need a dove tail mount. I don't recommend mounting on an air rifle because of the back and forth "recoil" of the system which may damage the scope. It is a rugged design and definitely capable of service, but i recommend this scope for a rim fire as opposed to a spring flinger.
