Ive been watching that scope but waiting for better coupons to come along.  Ive had barska scopes there bottom of the barrel except the mill dot air rifle scope i liked that because its light.

I find them to be a crap shoot.  



My 3-12 x 40 airgun scope turned out to be pretty decent and clear throughout the zoom range even on a cloudy day.  



Maybe I'll get lucky again.  



Even though it's a 6.5-20x50, I'm honestly not expecting to get much clarity At 20 power due to the cheaper optics but it is a/o and I'm hoping it will at least be a good 6.5 to 12 or 14 x 50 scope if I'm lucky.



Not concerned if it's springer air gun rated or not so I didn't check literature tells you nada. It will probably end up on a pneumatic anyway..



We'll see?  :o

I have heard several stories on Scopes and springers now!  I am not even sure if there is a definitive answer.
   First I heard if you didn't use a scope made for an Air-Gun it will fall apart.
  Then I heard that was true years ago and that "newer" [ what defines "newer"] do not have that problem anymore.
   DO those of you that work on Air-Guns for a living know for sure?  Can you enlighten us all!

Personaly i dont belive bsa for instance does anything more special than there standard scopes but i may be wrong.  Every scope ive bought latley is shockproof.  I would get a BSA air guns scope for say rws 34 or higher powered gun.  My gamo though could handle a regualr bushy.
