scope that will survive a TR77 NPS (1000fps)

Jump to latest Follow Reply
Well I have a scope that has been on 4 different springers that's never failed get but it's not really " springer rated" . It's a Bushnell AR 2-7 . Cost like 120$ at Walmart . Keep the box and receipt and if it does fail then just take it back for a refund or exchange . Center points and a couple others I've had that say springer rated haven't held up . Don't get me wrong , I wouldn't want to chance breaking an expensive scope on a hard recoiling springer . But I truly think that the truly cheapest scopes would fail just like they do on airguns if on a deer rifle . Difference is we shoot couple hundred rounds in a week . So we put a lotta wear and tear on them .

yeah I have killed the centre point supplied scope, a Diana scope that was supposed to be air gun rated, a barska air gun scope and 2 nikko stirling air guns mount master scopes so kinda over it, the one I am considering is this:

but they are not sure it will handle the TR77, other one that I may have to go with is this as I have seen that a 30mm tube scope is better:

but will require a new mount

I hear ya !!! Some springers are harder on them than others . Got a buddy with a Hatsan 25 caliber that kick like a 243 with a bunch of hand tools hanging off it . Feels like a bucking mule ....Absolutely eats scopes .
If you bail on the springers ( I did for a while) next time look at something maybe more laid back like a Diana 34 or a HW 30... Both have smooth shot cycles and aren't very hold sensitive . The new scope is Badass looking by the way !!!!
