Well, I have Leapers Accushot rings which I am going to return (see my review). Hawke might be my next ring choice. I am going to get a Gene turbo tune in the near future. I need better scope than the Leapers I have (defective/not strong enough) and all of the scopes you are selling are going to be better than that. I would love pictures of your favorites for the 89!

Found some links.... are these the exact scopes?

Leupold http://www.leupold.com/hunting-and-shooting/products/scopes/vx-i-riflescopes/vx-i-3-9x40mm/
Sightron http://www.sightron.com/index.php?action=view_document&did=1203036878&expanded=t&cat_id=7&id=118

I know that the Leupold is always under warranty. What about the Sightron??? And for how long???

Any pictures would be appreciated.

Found this on their web site...

"What Scopes are Recommended for Air Gun use?"
All Leupold scopes will withstand the spring recoil of air guns. Leupold's EFR (Extended Focus Range) scopes will focus down to 10 meters, and out to infinity. Leupold offers two models in EFR, the 6.5-20x40 EFR and the 3-9x33 EFR. Leupold's Custom Shop also offers parallax changes to most Leupold scopes for a charge of $15.00 plus $15.00 shipping and handling. Having the parallax changed can allow the user to focus the scope down to very close distances for air gun applications.

Parallax change eh?

Parallax change is something I have done on my own with really good results. Of course I experimented on cheaper scopes first and also have tools to work on optics and lenses. However, it is mostly a matter of moving the front lens grouping out -- often done by simply screwing the lens assembly counter clockwise. That is NOT just the bell, but the lens inside...and gawd help you if you scratch it! With care and the right tools it can be done with very little risk. Avoid over adjusting to keep from losing the nitrogen.

I was just shooting pictures...I'll have them up shortly. And YES, those appear to be the exact scopes I have available.

I really like that Leupold..... how much was it new? No AO is fine for hunting. Animal appears, you shoot! No adjusting!

I paid about $240...Either $229+shipping, or $240 with shipping included. It is a really nice scope...Nice enough that I got the 3-9x33 EFR Ultralight to use with my springers. I did it for the AO though...the company says all their scopes will handle double-recoil.

Sightron's got a lifetime warrantee: "Should your Sightron product ever fail, simply return it to Sightron at the address listed below with a brief note of the problem and your daytime contact information and we will repair or replace it at our option."

I like all of them...I just needed AO. I spent over $1000 to find that out...duh.

AO for Targets?
« Reply #22 on: November 24, 2009, 05:45:47 AM »
Do you need AO for target shooting?
Does the Leupold scope focus down to 10yds? (on their site they say the rifle scopes focus at 150yds.) If not I guess I could get the parallax changed.

The non AO scopes are set at the factory to focus optimally at 100-150yards, but you can see well enough at 20 or 25. I can get a pretty close number if you need it. Because of ridiculous laws, I became constrained to shooting in my garage, and 7-10 yards is critical for me. I will be adjusting my parallax even on the AO to go shorter...maybe even as low as 15 FEET. I shoout targets...and toys ;-) But I'll also be joining a club with a range in 2010, and have a brother-in-law once removed that has some land not far from here. So I'll need to vary. In steps AO! I won't weep if I have to keep these scopes as I might use them someday. But they'd just be taking space till then. I'm betting there are people who can make better use of them.
