Well, there's really only one way to find out.

Go shoot 100 shots at the range, then send us some pics of the scope... and your shoulder... grin

Not nearly the same thing, but I have that scope on my 338 and 375 both with 40 plus rounds on them now and both are showing no worse for the wear thus far.

Well I ran one on a 7lb tikka 9.3x62, over a 100 rounds through that rifle and no probs with the scope at all.
