CenterPoint Power Class 3-12x44AO Compact Rifle Scope, Mil-Dot Reticle, 30mm Tube by CenterPointreviews summary
Things I would have changed:Not a thing! What others should know:Go ahead and buy it, you won't be sorry.
Things I would have changed:Try to improve the sharpness of the lenses. What others should know:Be sure to check if the length of this scope to see if itwill work for you before you order it. This is a very large scope! I mounted the scope and adjusted it for the proper eye relief, rotated it to be level with the rifle and locked it in place. I went to cock my Remington NPSS and the barrel hit the bottom of the scope!! I had to slide it back a good 1/2" and I had to get accustomed to moving my head back a little bit.
Things I would have changed:Nothing What others should know:In mid 2007, I purchased a CenterPoint Power Class 3-12x44AO Compact Side Focus scope from Pyramyd Air to go on my new Benjamin Discovery air rifle. The 30 mm tube and large 44 mm objective provides a sharp and clear image but the most outstanding feature of this scope is the “eye relief tolerance”. I have tried many different brands of scopes and the eye relief on most is very critical, especially when you are using 10X power at the close end of the focus range. I don’t know if the compact wide angle design of this scope is responsible or if it’s just an accident of invention, but where most scopes require the shooter to wobble their head and roll their eye to find the exact eye relief point for a full clear picture of the target, this scope has a very forgiving eye relief range. Once you have adjusted the scopes position to the center of the eye relief range, you can snap the rifle to your shoulder and find a full clear picture of the target without wasting time trying to find an exact eye relief point. If you are a bench shooter, I guess it’s not so important but about 90 percent of my shooting practice is off-hand “snap shooting” and being able to snap the rifle to my shoulder and instantly find the target image, has made this scope a pleasure to use. I recently purchased an Air Force Talon SS 22 and installed a new CenterPoint Power Class 3-12x44AO Compact Side Focus scope on it. The compact design fits perfectly with the Talon SS size and provides a great combination for off hand “snap shooting”. I have reviewed the Talon SS separately. Air gun shooting has become a favorite sport for me and it is a very economical way to maintain good shooting skills. The transition back to rim fire or center fire is quick and effective. To summarize, this scope is the best air rifle scope that I have found. The bright image, 30 mm tube, 44 mm objective, side focus and compact design are all plus points for this scope but again, the most outstanding feature is the “eye relief tolerance”. As I expand my collection of air rifles, this scope will continue to be a favorite companion.
