Anyway, would appreciate your recommendations on an airgun scope in the $100-200 range that will hold a zero and ruin some more tree rats' days.

And before you say it, yes, I know putting the Leupold on it was a dipschitt move....


You think you ruined a Leupold scope on an air rifle that is a pump-up, rather than a spring action?

I seriously doubt it. I've had Leopold scopes on .338 Win Mags, and didn't mess them up.

If you want a scope that is more in tune to air rifles, get one with an adjustable objective suited to shorter ranges. I use CenterPoint scopes on my airguns. They work great, and hold zero well.

The AO deal eliminates parallax at shorter ranges for better accuracy than scopes that have a set parallax for 100 yards.
