best springer rated scope around 200 dollars?

Vortex Diamondback 2-7×35

I like the Sightron SIH412X40FTMD and SIH412X40FTMOA. Glass is clear. It focuses as close as 8 yards. It's not too heavy either.

I've used them on my Beeman R9 for several years with no trouble.

Your going to get a lot of opinions on this. So I may as well give mine. I have a Sig ASP20 in .22cal and it's snap is right up there with any springer I have owned. I had the Hawke Airmax 3-9 40 on it and had to send it back due to POI variations. May, or may not, have been a result of the rifles recoil. I now have a UTG Hunter IR 3-9x40 AO and have had no problems at all with it. Sure, the glass isn't as nice as the more expensive scopes but it's doable ! The cross hairs are thicker but fine hairs tend to break on harsh springers. I only paid $63 on Amazon for the scope and consider it money well spent. Look at the reviews on this scope at Airgun Depot. It seems to be one of the better Leapers scopes. 

I've also used UTG scopes successfully in that range. I have an 8-32 Accushot that has been excellent.

Best clarity I have found is with leupold vx 1 or 2 in fixed 4 power. It doesn't have variable power but for me 4 power is all I need or want in springer airguns. Lifetime warranty no recipt necessary. 

I also like the Sightron ,about $140 new,also the older Bushnell Elites,the newer Elite are too expensive .

This, and the diamondback 3-9X40 as well. Clear optics, holds zero, great warrantee. Overall solid for the money. I have the vortex 3-9X40 on my Diana 48, zero issues. Thousands of shots with no issues.

I have well over 4000 shots with my 2-7X35 and operating as it was when brand new out of the box.
