The only brand of those I have any eperience with is the Hawke. I have three of their Airmax which is designed specifically for air rifles, and two of the next higher grade sidewinder models. Mine will all focus a shorter range 10 meters vs 15 for the Vantage, which is considered a plus for air rifles, also better sharper optics and higher price. All Hawke scopes are supposed to be air gun rated, plus I understand their warrenty is one of the best, although I have not had to use it.

I believe the Hawke Vantage line is only rated for sub-12 FPE.

Vortex may be an option as well.

Hawke Airmax scopes are rated for powerful springers but Vantage aren't.
