What scopes are you using on your airguns?

I have an RWS Daina .45 and I've put a cheap Tasco world scope 3-9 when I 1st had it. It didn't hold zero for long. I put another Tasco, but it was a red dot at the time and I also didn't have any luck keeping zero. Just carious on what everyone using.

I'm looking at the Simmons ProAir scopes. Anyone use one? How you like it? Thanks for the useful help.

I'm using a RWS Scope on my Gammo has held up very well. I have a straight 4X, but believe it comes in 3x9 too. Even though it's RWS it's made in China. Will admitt the optics are very good.

Eider, Mine a RWS Daina Model 45, my bad. It's a .177cal, sorry for the confusion

. Think this summer I'll break down and buy a nice airgun scope. I have no use of my airgun as of right now.

Tasko straight 4 airgun scope. Older model. Super! Over 10,000 shots. RWS 2-7, came with gun. POS. Variable hard to chage affects impact. Have looked at Burris but at that price would have to use it on several guns to justify it.

I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on a scope that wont be used too much expect during the summer shooting some crackles. I was looking along the lines of Simmon's ProAir models. I believe they're right around $150 and lower. I also looked through the Cabela's catolog by there airguns and seen a couple Bushnells. Not sure how well those will hold up. Guess In the summer I'll have to try my luck on one.

Go to Straightshooters.com

There ya can find info on what scope will hold up on what rifle.
Your medium recoil and magnum springers will rip a scope to pieces in good order.

You want one that has a proven track record.
