Scope power

[Alderman]

My first air rifle came with an 8-32 power Hawke Sidewinder scope. I assumed I would swap it for something with less power but find it actually works quite well. This one has been a pleasant surprise. Using the highest power setting is no problem especially with the side focus wheel. 
Obviously not everybody has a need for this much magnification but just passing on the info that it does work.

The only problem that can occur is sometimes, like when hunting if fast shooting is involved, the FOV at any magnification in that 8-32 might be to small. If that will never be an issue for your purposes, then enjoy! I prefer mid to high magnification myself. 

Different scopes for different dope's, I'm a dope so I pick the scope based on my hope's
