Scope recommendation

[Bikerlee]

I just got a weihrauch hw50 in .22. Need scope and ring advice. Thanks

i'd get one of those bulletproof one piece scope mounts with built-in rings .. if i had a cheap scope like a 4X gamo in a drawer i'd throw that on it to start with .. if it was worthy i'd put something better on it like a bug buster ...

BKL or Sportsmatch 1-piece mounts. Optisan HX 4-12x40AO that's on sale at UA for $100. The BKL/Sportsmatch are more expensive but they're definitely worth it.

Thanks for the suggestions.. this gun is incredibly accurate with open sights so I feel it deserves a good scope

On my newly purchased HW50 I put on a Clearidge RM 3x9x32 with Hawke low match rings. It’s a great set up but I would go with medium rings because the lens cover does not fit between the breach and the scope. I feel like it’s a step up from the Hawke 2x7x32 on my HW30. Both are excellent.

Mine in .177 wears a 3-9X40AO Hawke Air max.

Works like a charm.

If you are happy with the power and performance, Leapers has a lifetime warranty. I had a similar problem with mine and they couldn’t move fast enough to solve my problems. Contact them for repair.

You may visit Gun Trusted site for gun and scope ideas. Hope will be helpful for you.

Sportsmatch, my Beeman RX has the one piece, she can kick a little, my HW 50s (2) both have the Sportsmatch TO4C for the 1" tube 3/8 dovetail

If you don't need a mildot ret, you may want to look at the Bushnell prime 3.5-10x36 AO. These have been discontinued! but there is still some available on E-bay & probably Amazon. Can be had for 100.00 or less now. They are incredibly bright & the adjustments accurate & true.

I also use a Clearidge 3-9x32 AO on my HW97. After about 500 pellets its holding zero and tracks accurately. I think the combination of 9x with fine crosshair reticle works well for target shooting paper. The duplex, mildot, or duplex dot reticles might be better suited for field work, but currently Optic Zone (Clearidge) does not have those reticles in stock.

SWFA 10x,

plus there on sale at SWFA for $199.

IMO, this is the very best scope in the lower price range

I put classic Adjustable Objective Leupolds on mine, simple cross hairs. 3-9x40 on HW30s, 6.5-20x40 on HW95. 

Neither are current models but were widely sold and available as old stock or used. Be sure to get the Adjustable Objective (Adjustable Parallax) models that go down to 10 yards. 

High build quality, great warranty, clear glass in one-inch tubes, lightweight and springer safe. No silly Chinese logos or tactikewl decorations. 

Expensive but not out of sight. 

If Leupold wasn't making so much money from the military LEO contracts and FUDD types then they ought to redesign a series of modern airgun scopes with side focus, larger tubes and modern reticles. 

But I rather like the classic old-school scope with classic rifles.
