I was working on some prairie rats on Sunday with my Beeman Crow Magnum .20cal and the scope finally puked.

It's shooting two distinct groups at 50yds, several inches apart. Left, right, right, left, right, right, left, left, right, It's done.

This rifle is still shooting 13.73gr pellets at 866fps so it kicks pretty hard but it works so well for my needs I don't want to retire it.

Barry has nudged me to get a PCP but I just don't use an air rifle enough to justify another platform.

So I'm wondering what you're using on a hard kicking air rifle.

Thinking of the Hawke Airmax 4-12x40 AO but I don't know anybody that's shot one.

Thanks!
