Everything! Especially the capless turrent style adjusters.

Offer a choice of mounts, Either Weaver or 11mm scope mount.

It has held up well to the vibration of my springer air gun.

Full size, full feature scope... Did I say FULL SIZE? The scope on my 7mm mag. isn't this big. I love the ability to easily accommodate my nearsightedness. I adjusted the eyepiece "out", turned the bell to match my range distance, and dialed in the bulls-eye with less than 6 shots. I hope that I remember to shut off the light... But it shipped with two batteries.

The flip up lens caps didn't stay on very long. Defeated the purpose of an adjustable bell - and just got in the way on the eyepiece.

It's mounted on a TX200 HC using the UTG offset mount (my mount had two stop pins - it was big enough and heavy enough that the stop pins were effective in eliminating any creep). Fits well in a "42" tactical case"

The zero reference adjustment knobs are great for those tweaks and it works well at dusk.

The umpteen different color reticule mode can get a bit annoying.

Great scope, maybe a bit much for an air riffle.

I bought one of these for a Hatsan 125 Sniper, and it's been awesome. It was fairly easy to sight in, and it's remained stable for hundreds and hundreds of rounds. The optics gather a lot of light which makes this scope easy to use at twilight. The lighted reticle makes low-light use even better.

The lighting buttons have always felt kinda fussy to me, I read the instructions several times and had a hard time figuring out how the thing worked. I've learned since that it's all about how long you press the buttons, and gotten the hang of it. It's easy enough to use.

I had an opportunity to work with UTG/Leapers Support directly over a minor issue with this scope, and it was a really good experience. Their support is in the U.S., they pick up the phone, and they get it handled. I'd buy another scope from UTG in a heartbeat.

I like this scope a lot. I put it on my Benjamin Titan 22 after liking the same scope on my Hatsan 125. I used to have a BSA scope on my Titan, and at 30 yards would need to hold right of the target. The gun simply seemed to "pull" that way at 30 yards, but was dead on at 20. With the Leapers, I'm one milldot directly over the target at 30 yards. Same pellet. Same gun. It seems the old BSA scope was the culprit in skewing my targeting. This Leapers is right on and holds its zero with the lockdown turrets. I've been on three outings since instaling it and haven't needed to adjust the zero at all.

Nothing

I like the lens caps and the locking adjustments to hold zero. I also like the ez tap buttons to turn on the red or green reticle illumination.

Nothing, the scope is excellent as is.

Quality, appearance and features.

I purchased two of these: one for my Hatsan 95 .25cal springer and one for my Crosman .22cal Nitro Venom. Easy to sight-in and holds true. My Hatsan 95 can be murder on lesser scopes, but this one continues to hold up after many hours of use. I wouldn't dream of using any other scope on my air rifles. These are designed to take the punishing recoil that is so common on magnum sprig-piston rifles.

I really like the 5 yd. parallax adjustment. I replaced the CP scope that came with my NP XL 725 with this one because after about 700 pellets the CP no longer held zero. I've only shot about 400 pellets so far through the leapers, but it is holding up well. The turret locks are easy to use and effective. The many colors available for the reticle are quite effective. This is my first illuminated scope. The optics are clear and free of any distortions. The mil dots are close together and small leaving me a good view of my targets.

I understand the philosophy of the small card that came with the scope for mil-dot range estimating because it fits in your wallet easily, but I cannot read the chart without a magnifying glass. If you are young with good eyes then you're all set. The flip up scope caps are a little annoying because I have to remove them from the scope to adjust parallax or optic adjustment, but they do protect the lens from water and dust.

IMO, this scope has been a good replacement for the CP. PA recommended this scope to me based on the features, reliability and my budget of $100. It works well on my NP XL725. I'm hoping it will last for many years, but if it doesn't it has a limited lifetime warranty against failure.

A great value. Bright, clear sight picture. Parallax adjustment down to 5 yds. at all powers. 3x-9x ideal for short range shooting 5-40 yds. Tight smooth tactile feel for turrets, eye piece, and objective lens. Lighted colored reticle is very helpful in low light situations. Good range for eye relief.

Comes with weaver mount scope rings--change to 11mm dovetail rings. Smaller diameter for objective housing. Shorten taper on objective housing.

Requires high rings for 11mm dovetail mounting. Objective housing is 57mm diameter; adding dust cap increases objective end diameter to 61mm. Long taper on objective housing may be an issue on some rifles--not a problem for a Beeman R9.

Terrific scope I put it on my .25 Marauder I don't think I could have gotten a better match with any other scope.

Nothing.

I really like the fact you can zero the scope and then lock the settings.

Nice well made scope,this is my third scope from PYRAMYD AIR,I mounted in my ruger air hawk,and the gun look very nice.

NADA.

Pretty clear magnification,very easy to adjust,locking re- zeroing turrents,I love the ilumination,and my new ruger air hawk look very nice.

Clarity of scope is really good, 3-9 magnification, AO, and locking windage and elevation. All this for a real reasonable price

nothing

Great reticle the color options are cool and scope sights in very easy

Just the lens covers ... Get annoying when sighting in and the hinges are rotating with it!!!!

If your looking for a good scope for a springer or piston rifle this is the scope!!!!

This scope is one of the finest scope I have had the opportunity to use. It is solid, fine craftsmanship and optics crystal clear. This scope has definitely improved my marksmanship. It's a keeper !

Nothing.

When scoping an air gun make sure the scope is certified for air guns. An air gun will totally destroy the average scope. I know this from experience.

The quality and look of this product. Seems to be super sturdy and I love the lock down turrets.

None

I havnt shot it enough to make sure it holds zero. I'm sure it will because this thing seems to be very good quality

I'm a first time air gunner and this scope was very easy to mount and sight. I love the illuminated reticle!

I order this scope based on the experience with other Leapers UTG that I have. This is a very robust scope, well built, sharp. The scope towers are for Picatinny 1" rails not 11mm dove tail that are found on most air rifles. The illumination of the reticule in various colours are a most for different shooting situations.

Nothing

Depending on your air rifle I recommend that you put a little bit of Loctite Tread Locker on the bolts to secure your scope, this way the recoil of your rifle won't affect your zeroed on the rifle.

Crystal clear glass for the money. Overall an excellent scope for the price range it is in

Cannot for the life of me get the point of aim and point of impact to coincide. Even with it fully adjusted down, POI is still 4 mil-dots high at 30 yds, no matter what kind of Rings I use to mount it.

Just the what was mentioned above. Don't know if it's just this scope or the line in general, but Leapers makes good stuff so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt

CRISP, CLEAR images. Adjustability is found for diopters/eye characteristics, Objective focus and, of course Elevation and Windage. Like the lock down EW dials. Have not fired up the illuminated reticle yet, but has 36 colors possible with quick access to red or green.

The mounts are the high see-throughs, but the bell of the objective lens is so large that one can see through the mounts to the flare of the backside of the objective lens. Need to be higher or forget the see through function. Perhaps, also someone needs to make a precise and reasonably priced adjustable mounts for EW so that the scope can have maximum range of adjustability?

Shock resistant, excellent glass, great reputation, and a genuinely great buy.

Looks to be a great airgun scope. I like the adjustable AO out front. Quality is great. Even has the Red & Green lighted feature if you need it, and the colors can be changed like a rainbow to make it easier to use in any kind of light.

I donno what I would change. The adjustment knobs have lock-down's on them (no tools required) Overall a great scope.

My rifle is the Hatsan 125 sniper in .22. The rifle is very long & heavy. With the scope mounted as far back as possible wasn't enough eye relief so I'd have to pull my head forward to see through the scope properly. BUT it was an easy fix. I purchased a weaver to weaver adaptor and was able to move the scope back for proper eye relief. I'm NO airgun expert!
