Things I liked:

Very clear glass lens. Easy to see and use reticle. These scopes are easy to adjust to a very fine focus.

Things I would have changed:

Nothing.

What others should know:

I own four BSA scopes and love them. I have two of these 3-9x40 scopes and have been very satisfided with the clarity and the thin reticles. I did have to tighten both the horizontal and vertical adjustments, which was NO big deal. Simply screw down the adjustment cover until the adjustment mechanism becomes tight. From there you can make all the ajustment "clicks" necessary. I plan on buying a BSA scope for every air rifle I purchase.

Rating 5.05.0 5.0

Things I liked:

Duplex reticle and not too thick.

Things I would have changed:

Nothing

What others should know:

I have 3 of the BSA airgun scopes because I like duplex reticles over mil-dot. One of my older 4x models does not have the fast focus eyepiece as the newer models do, nice addition BSA.

    would this scope do me well with a hatsan 125 .25?

      Trust Tyler he would know.

    • Rahal from Sri Lanka answered:

      The scope description says it can handle magnum power recoil, but you say that you don't recommend. Who is correct ?

    • Tyler Patner from USA answered:

      I would not recommend it on such a high power magnum. I would go with a Leapers scope.
