Honestly, it's a gimmick. Had a friend who bought one and I tried it out and decided not to even mount it on his gun. I did mount just the red dot sight, it works. My advice would be to send it back.

A halfway decent one of any of the three items included is as much or more than the complete scope kit costs. So you immediately know it is not a good scope. It does not have adjustable parallax and no set point is even indicated on the site.
If you want a decent inexpensive scope the Hawke 2x7x32 is one of the very few good ones for about $100
Odoyle might be able to give you another choice or two in that price point.

It’s heavy, field of vision is narrow, reticle is basically useless. I would return it in a heartbeat.
for 20 dollars more this is night and day better!

The Veyron is a great scope and parallax goes down to <10 yards so it is very usable for airguns. Problem is I ordered one three months ago and just got notice that it may be five months before they even have it back in stock.
I would pass on the UTG just too gimmicky. I have had UTG scopes they are not that great but usable.
Not sure on the Bushnell it ticks most of the right boxes but is likely a big heavy scopes and minimum parallax is not given.

A couple of reviews one on a Hawke and another on the UTG you pointed out.

The Bushnell site says the parallax goes down to 10 yards so specs say it would be OK of you like the reticle.

You seem to like paying more for things than they are really worth.
Buy The Centerpoint 3-12x44 PLT SFP BDC 30mm side focus.
It's better than what you have already listed and best bang for your buck.
OFFER $65.00 it has a MAKE OFFER OPTION. EVEN if you pay full price it's still cheaper than buying it from Wal-Mart $104.00. Excellent glass and very useable BDC reticle for airguns. 30mm side focus too. I have one on my 22 Taipan Veteran shorty and it's absolutely perfect for it IMHO more so than a similar UTG that cost twice the price.
You are also very much welcomed to and is well within your right to throw away your hard earned money elsewhere too.
I have mostly all different levels and models of UTGs and Centerpoint scopes too BTW and SOME of the Centerpoints are equal to if not better than the UTGs at much lesser cost. The only UTG scopes I really like are the ones with the UMOA Reticles and most others not so much except the mini swat compact 3-12x44 and 4-16x44 compact because of their compact size but are still overpriced for what you get IMHO.

Or pay more from Wal-Mart. Your local Wal-Mart may even have it. Also has 100% 5-STAR perfect positive feedback for this scope from 10 different Wal-Mart shoppers. PLUS Everyone who bought it based on my recommendation were all happy with thes Centerpoint scope as well. I am extremely critical about scopes and optical quality as well and this one really surprised me. The only other standout in this price point that I know of is the sub $80 shipped!!! BSA 4-14x44 FFP from Aliexpress that MidwayUSA sells for $299 but that's only clear till around 12x to 13x out of its 14x maximum zoom and this Centerpoint is clear all the way to maximum.

I have the lower magnification version of it and it's pretty terrible. I have mounted it on my Chinese B-3 underlever cheap azz Springer to see how many rounds it will handle.

The CHEAPER scopes may have short term warranties such as from Vector optics which only carry a 5 year warranty so do the Discovery at only 3 years for their cheaper models so I no longer push these.
The sub $80 SHIPPED!!! BSA 4-14x44 FFP is assumed to have no warranty buying from Aliexpress but if you pay $299 from MidwayUSA for it then that's another story but I most certainly wouldn't pay $299 for it because I got that yummy taste of buying it for way cheaper for 1/3 the price.
The Centerpoints and UTGs carry lifetime warranties so buy them as cheap as you can. I would say that SOME Centerpoints are worth their full retail price for what you get but NOT the UTGs nor HAWKEs and most other brands and models of NON Tier1 scopes as well even if they are JAPAN MADE. Buy what you want as cheap as possible because their markups are super high so shop smart (OR NOT).
I get pretty bummed and really feel like an idiot when I buy a $600 scope and receive it then find the same scope selling elsewhere for $350 after the fact. Worst is the Japan Sightron SIII illuminated 10-50x60 $1300 scope then being sold on clearance for $699 from another dealer because I didn't do much research nor pay attention to other forums heads up before buying. I could have looked up Sightron USA and found that they were being discounted on clearance while they still milked the market at retail at other dealers.

HYNZIE YOU OK???
NOW is NOT the time to play mannequin.
OH MY BAD! The $130 version of the $80 Amazon scope with green laser and holo sight combo may be better quality since you get what you pay for in life so by paying more money for the more expensive one it should be better right?
Same "you get what you pay for" logic goes for the 3-12x44 PLT SFP Centerpoint scope perhaps buy it from Crosman for $145 retail instead and don't use the AGN DISCOUNT because many folks really enjoy spending more money than they need to and it makes them happier.

I've got 3 of these Crosman scopes & no complaints. For the price point they are definitely what i would consider a sleeper scope! The only thing i would like is for them to bump this scope to 16x.
