Norica Scope for .22 springer!

[(F)Airgunner]

I need a budget scope for 100-200€ to a Norica Storm Elite .22.

I was looking some Hawkes and Vector optics. Have anyone of you used vector optics, is that any good and can their scopes take springer recoil?

Any other under 200 scopes that you will recommend?

This will work.

You'll want a springer rated scope with MilDot for holding over. 22 is kind of loopy. I use Hawkes on all my springers seldom a problem and a great warranty if there is. Make sure you check for barrel droop. Barrel droop kills more scopes than the actual recoil.

I have been happy with this one so far.
It came up when I did a springer scopes search.
It's a Nicco Stirling Ait King, 3-9x42, mil dot with an adjustable objective to cancel parallax error. They are from Optics Planet. $94.76

My Hw 97kt destroyed Hawke Airmax 3-9x40 after around 2000 shoots.
Also had Nikko stirling Panamax 3-9x40 and was destroyed at about 1500 shoots from Hw 50s and Bsa Supersport.
Both scopes are springer rated and were replaced on warranty.
I would invest in a Sportsmatch dampa mount or any other mounts that absorb recoil if i ever put another scope on a springer.

CenterPoint 3-9x40AO came with 2018 Benjamin Trail NP XL .22, still doing great despite "magnum" power recoil. WM

Mount with Burris Rings with inserts. The damage is from vibration more so than recoil. The inserts will negate much of the vibrations. This has worked for me with a .22 Diana 54.

This what I ended up with. I think that 3-9 is enough.

Actually I did order 2 of these because my gamo swarm magnum destroyed my gamo's 4-12x44 scope.

unless something has changed Hawke recommends the Vantage line for only up to 12fpe on piston guns.

The scope in the picture doesn't have an adjustable objective. I have that scope with and without AO. Good scopes.

Without AO it's gonna be blurry above 4x at airgun ranges. Mine is still a little blurry at 40 yards at 9x. It has 100 yard parallax setting for centerfire rifles. I have that scope on a 17HMR because it has a 100 yard zero.

The same scope with AO is in focus down to ten yards at 9x. I use that scope to test airguns that I'm working on. I can't kill it. It's been on dozens of springers including three R1s and is still working even after rolling off the work bench on to the concrete floor.

I were still able to change that order. I ordered that same scope with illuminated reticle and adjustable objective.
