Smooth magnification, focus, and the turrets are rock solid. The glass in unbelievably good for the money. All these vortex fanboys need a little Bushnell in their life because its far superior imo.

Yep. I have 2 of the Airmax Compact SF. Absolutely brilliant. With no mounts or flip covers in the box they can work out a little more expensive on paper than the competition, but in the UK especially you can get better deals on them. 👍

[@southeastairgun2118]

Thank you sir. I did not, however, hear anything about these scopes being able to take the recoil of a spring or gas piston airgun. The first one (Vantage) is a great little scope and I have one on one of my Trail NPs, but the bigger 4-12x50 Vantage lasted about 3 months on my Hatsan 155. Hawke replaced it but recommended only their Airmax and Sidewinder scopes for spring piston guns. Obviously, just about any scope will handle a PCP, but with springers, it's a different story, and I know that you're aware of this. I'd love to see a review on some less expensive scopes for springers. Thank you again. Your videos are appreciated.

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Great idea man 👍

[@southeastairgun2118]

@Bill Cooper Yeah, I had a Swift 3-9x40 on my .444 and frankly, I'd never buy another one unless something major has changed. I was not impressed at all with that scope for the price (the gun and scope were a gift) and I soon took it off and replaced it with a Leupold. That may be the only scope I've ever owned that I don't remember what happened or where it went. I think I trashed it. I wonder if Swift has had to replace enough to change their mind yet ?? A lot of companies that were touting "Springer rated" back five years ago have changed their tune. I personally have had very good luck with UTG, and no, I'm not a UTG fan, but out of 10 UTG scopes on springers, I've broken one (3-9x32) on a tuned 31 FPE Hatsan .30 cal. I also own six more ultra-magnum tuned 30 FPE Hatsans that (all but one) have UTGs on them, some with over 1500 shots. I have yet to break a UTG on a "regular magnum" springer like the NP, NP2, or Walther Parrus. I still have never broken a Leupold (knock on wood) no matter what they've been on. Thanks Bill.

Great video again! However... recon it would be great to know that these scopes can take the beating of the powerful spring gun, Forward recoil! It's not enough just to know its got great parallax adjustments or mildots etc, I don't own a pcp, but do work as a pest controller for rabbits with two guns that are capable of eating expensive scopes for a snack, a 56TH or HW 80 using vortek springs can destroy a khales in an afternoon no problem. Some of the scopes you have mentioned may only suit pcp airguns You haven't mentioned forward recoil at all. PG German Airgun tuner / shooter

Hey Joe love your videos and your zero bullshit approach. Thinking about getting a Hawke 3×9x40 but have seen you recommend the 2x7 multiple times. Is there something about the 3x9 that you don't like? Keep up the good work!!

[@EDCandLace]

The 2-7 vantage or 3-9 are extremely good scopes. The 2-7 is slightly brighter and crisper then the 3-9 as you would expect but they are both fantastic and likely can not be touched by any other scope at 100 bucks or so they can be had for. I whole heartily agree with Joe that higher end Hawke scopes are a waste of money but at 100 to 120 bucks the vantage is superb and will give you what you need. The 2-7 is ideal for your 100 to 200 dollar springers as is the 3-9. I own 2 of the 2-7s that are on a HW30 .177 and HW30 .22 and they are great i have a 3-9 on a Beeman R1 .22 and it's great.

I bought my first air gun yesterday. Gamo Mach 1 in a 22 cal. I need some help choosing a scope. I see here that some are 3x9x40 and 4x14x44 then 5x25x50 and so on. What is the idea size to put on that Mach 1? I want to buy a nice scope like the Arken but I don't know what the ideal size is. I'm not that concerned with the cost. Most of my shooting is just target practicing in my back yard. I have about a 100 yard long practice area for shooting.

Can you run a Nikon prostaff Rimfire .22 4-12X40 BDC 150 on a Gamo Coyote or Gamo Urban PCP rifle ?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

[@deadhorse3389]

I have broken leupolds bushnell redfield etc etc on springer air rifles, even leupold told me to, and I quote "to not use their scopes on a air gun" I can also see several of these other scopes breaking easily on a springer because they are not designed for the duel/reverse recoil that springers can have, also surprised you didnt mention the most popular air rifle scope being the Bug Buster built on the TS system by Leapers. I love your vids but a better title for this video would of been best PCP/Pump air gun scopes, because i'll bet you money I can break most of these scopes you listed within 100 shots on my springers.

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Yeah I don't even bother listing " Springer rated " any longer because the scope companies get a bunch in that won't handle it and tben they change their minds

[@EDCandLace]

100% correct. I can say tho that the Arken SH4 has held up extremely well on my TX200 MKIII .22. I have bought 3 EP4 MOA SHR so far one on my .22 Crown Cont 700mm slug liner and .25 Impact MKII 700 mm slug liner and on my poly barreled HMX LRT .22 all wearing the EP4 and in super impressed for 600 bucks. So i bought a 4-14x44 SH4 to see how it held up to a springer. My TX is 16.5ftlbs with 15.89s and super duper smooth so yes it's on a platform that is about as smooth and low recoil as a 17ftlb Springer can be but a springer non the less. I will say this My Leupold 3-9 EFR would wonder on that gun, it wore a SWFA fixed 10x and that scope held zero on it with zero issues BUT i hate the rear parallax adjustment so it had to go and for 350 bucks the Arken was worth a try worst that could happen is the zero wonder and i would throw it on a .25 Gaunlet and give it to my Nephew. Well it worked amazingly well on that gun. Now for the bad part, i got a Sig ASP .22 for a Bday gift a while back and decided throw a scope on it last week and i like the Arken and so took it off the TX and put it on the ASP after I shoot about 300 rounds to break it in (no scope on it just cheap crosman lead and cock and shoot until it really settled down then i threw the scope on it) the gun has a real quick/sharp shot cycle with a fair bit of recoil but pleasant to shoot for a gun making 22.3ftlbs with Air Arms/JSB 16g but shot them VERY WELL. The SH4 was wondering, at 20y during a 20 shot group there was literally 4 different groups. The wondering was as much as 3/8ths inch between groups. The gun kicked it's ass BUT hurt the scope in no way. I put it back on the TX zeroed and ran about 150 shots and she's perfect. I have put 4 scopes on the ASP20 and found that the SWFA fixed 10, Leupold 3-9EFR and Nikon EFR and the SH4 described above will NOT hold zero the all wonder on that gun with the Nikon wondering the least. The scope that is on it now I installed yesterday and shot about 200 shots today and it's holding solid is a Swift Optics 4-12x40 CS (reinforced ret and coil spring system) in case you didn't know Swift optics makes some extremely good scopes for the money and the 4-12x40CS has stood up to the hardest recoiling springers I've ever used. I have two one i bought about a year ago the other I've had for about 10 years. I knew this scope would handle the ASP no issues so i put it on it and sure enough it's perfect. The other i have is on a HW97 thats been swapped to a custom gas ram and making 22ftlbs with 21.14 Baracuda match so as you can expect it's a brute that is super touchy/hold sensitive and extremely violent on scopes and mounts for that matter we use a 6 bolt droop rail plus the scope stop to keep the rail from moving and the Swift CS holds zero like a boss on that gun. Optically the SH4 is slightly better then the Swift and the swift is a duplex (gags) so i would love if the SH4 would hold zero on it as it has an extremely nice mil based ret. The Swift tracks well tho so ill make a turret tape from 10 to 75y so i can just dial in the solution (i prefer to dial elevation and hold off for windage when shooting really long ranges with powder burners or PCPs alike but on springers i prefer to not touch the turrets once it's zeroed and holds that zero but in this case i have no choice unless I want it to be just a 10 to 30y bench gun... And that's not what i have in mind for it.) Shit this was a lot or talking about scopes and springerz. Hopefully this will help someone out tho. If you have a smooth shooting sub 12 to mid power Springer that doesn't kick like a mule (any high quality Springer in the 15 to 17ftlbs range or less ) the SH4 from what i have seen will work perfectly and hold zero no problem. If you have a springer that just destroys scopes and zero holding is a joke... Get you a Swift Optics 4-12x40 CS model and thank me later. I honestly believe there isn't a springer made that will cause that scope to wonder.

I have tried them many times ...And have always been disappointed in them . I know they have a lot of fans ....But I've yet to have a good one . So I gave up

@@CyclopsJoeVideosBeen watching your scope reviews for a while now and i thank you for putting up not so known scopes on the map.like most people on a budget i try to find quality optics at a good price .Always looking for deals ive bought scopes on amazon,ebay and the forums and been lucky ,bushnell to hawkes and others.But i have to say there is one particular scope that comes to mind ive had the pleasure of buying quite a few is barra optics .Barra has several lines but the keepers are the japanese made Ft and MP lines made in japan the FT lines are made in the same factory as the riton older 7 model scopes.Did research and those barra and upper older riton scope are made from the same scope manufacturers that made the old hakko scopes.Check out ebay sometimes you may find the FT hero scopes dirt cheap those are good quality scopes also stay away from the h30,h50,h20 scopes those are chinese .Also look on Amazon you will see these FT/MP scopes are up there in price .Thanks and appreciate the good reviews you've saved me a ton of money.

@@CyclopsJoeVideos Riton RT-S Mod 7 4-20x50mm and all the mod 7 older riton scope are made in the same japanese factory as the Ft model barra scopes,the killer is on a good day scouting on ebay you might get a deal .Ive bought the barra hero ft 5x25x50 sfp mildot that retails for $1000 for less than $300 on ebay .On a auction bought one for $125.

Cyclops Videos I trust your input, I really appreciate the reply.

[@juniorbra1]

Thanks Joe. What do you think of the Discovery VT-3 3x12x44 ffp compact scope?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

I like the Tac Vector Veyron much Better

[@rafaelzkm]

Can you check out the new utg classic 3-12x44?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

I have given up on UTG my friend . I just have had zero luck with them . The last few have just been awful quality.

[@kenlumhemang7654]

What about element optics ? You didn't mention

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

The only Element scope i e tested is the Nexus ( Awwesome ) but it was above the $750 cutoff for this video

[@BTOMF]

Is the tac vector Veyron or Bushnell engage spring air gun rated?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

I think both are . But the companies change that form time to time

[@JonasGrumby]

I got a Riteon X3 6-24X50 and the magnification ring didn't work right out of the box.

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Get in touch with them , they will make it right

[@JonasGrumby]

@Cyclops Videos Joe W Rhea I just returned it and got the Vortex you recommended. I think companies need to make it right before they ship it to me. I hope the Sig Sauer SV20 .177 break barrel I’m putting the vortex on don’t break the scope. It was on your best air gun scope video so I hope not.

[@wespuckdog3897]

Hey Joe, what are your thoughts on Meopta scopes?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Absolutely AWESOME scopes . But haven't tested any of the new ones yet

[@baasjan9488]

Im looking for a good scope for a .22 air arms s510 xs ultimate sporter. Its a precision rifle but I got a lynx 4x40 on it now. But this scope makes me shoot too left or too right or up or down. Whats the best option. I dont care for paying over $1000

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Any of the scopes in this video would be a great choice

[@baasjan9488]

Cyclops Videos Joe W Rhea ok thank you

[@saviofalcao670]

Hi which scope goes to minimum of 5 yrds

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

None that I know of

[@full-english]

What would you recommend for my ASP20 .177

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Bushnell ar series

[@full-english]

Thanks but I need a 30mm tube. I called bushy and they flat out told me they don’t have any springer rated optics. I’m still looking.

[@dangoich5001]

Great video, just once i would like to have an air rifle that costs more than the scope!

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Yeah seems my optics always cost more

[@markmtbrider]

@@CyclopsJoeVideos ryan cleckner would approve....lol

[@rapalaron6348]

Hi Joe! Again a great video. Just wonder why the Hawke Airmax is not with it. This one is specially for airguns.

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

I just feel there are better scopes for the money

[@DarrenPrice333]

I just got a Hawke airmax 30 ffp sf 6-24x50 AMX Ir and it’s better than a couple on here, that I tried them against.

[@Fubar684]

Primary is in Texas? I'm in. Joe, would you happen to know who makes those mag holders on that Taipan?

[@CyclopsJoeVideos]

Yep they are in Houston . I think Darko on AGN makes them
