For an inexpensive air gun scope I always used the Bushnell Sportview Airgun/.22 scope. After Bushnell bought Simmons and Tasco they moved that scope over to the Simmons 22 Magnum line and is now the 3-9x32AO.
I've had one on a Beeman R9 for about three years with no problems... Focuses close even on 9 power...about $75.00...
One of the few scopes out there that you actually get more than what you paid for...

I agree, the Bushnell Sport View (original Bushnell Sport View) is a cheap, tough, scope. That's the one
that was on my RWS Model 48 and could take some major recoil and never missed a beat. The Bushy Legend couldn't even come close to what the Sport View could take as far as recoil. Some times cheaper is better.
