Page 7 - UTG 30mm SWAT 3-12x44 AO Reviews

I like the large side wheel which you can get for it.Also very clear optics, best scope I have owned especially for the money it costs, great deal.

I really don't have any use for all the reticle colors, red and green would be enough.Wish it came with side wheel instead of having to pay around $13 for it.

Love this scope. Got one on my Umarex Octane and liked it so well, I've ordered another one to go on my new Marauder when it gets here.

Could care less about the illumination. Maybe a bigger side wheel instead.

Works great at 20 to 50 yd ranges for me. Can even focus at ten yds.

Excellent value, clear sight picture and the side wheel is great.

Nothing

economical alternative to other side wheel scopes

This scope is fantastic. I've won the honor of being first place winner in the northeast hunter piston class for 2013 using this scope on a B.S.A. polaris I've taken 1st place several times in 2013 in Birmingham N.Y. field target using this scope. I think that speaks for it's self.

I would like to see this scope with half mil dot's.

This scope will get the job done.

Vary clear, enjoy the different looks the colors give. Easy to adjust for depth.

A 1" barrel would give you more mounting options.

I don"t wont this to sound like looks are all that is importuned but the lens covers are more then just functional, they also add to the visual appeal of my air rifle.

It is well thought out with very good light. It's great to see a scope with so many options at such a good price.

I would change to a two color illuminated reticle and use the savings to add a large side wheel.

A $400 or $500 scope is better but this one fits a working mans budget.

This is a fine looking, well built scope with all of the proper accoutrements.....side focus, positive adjustment clicks....and great glass.

I shoot and hunt very small targets....mostly insects and small rodents. The reticule on the Leapers is just too heavy to work well for me. When the Centerpoint 4-16x scopes come back in stock, I'll get one, and send this scope down the road

This scope is fine quality......it just doesn't fit my purpose. If you shoot slightly larger targets (game), you'll love this scope.....and the great price.

Best budget scope of all the other brands hands down. NC star, Barsaka ,Walther ,Tasco don't even come close in the same price range .They are a signifcant step ahead in quality.I'm replacing the scopes on all three of my pcps with this model , so every time I pick one up I'm looking thru the same scope .Even the cheaper Golden Image series have great glass . I have a 4x32 and a 3x9x32.Those got me into the leapers line.plus the rings are of good precision as well if have yet to do any large amount of clicks to zero a scope . Of course that depends on the gun and how tall of rings you put on it . I always use the lowest set of rings I can get away with , closer to the bore the better .

Maybe exclude the rings , let the customer buy their own for their rifle . A.pcp doesn't have enough recoil to warrant such strong rings so I would rather have a lighter set of rings .plus not everyone has a weaver mount , I had to buy the adapters for it which was fine only ten bucks and I knew that going into it .

If you not finding the need to put $200 on up glass on your gun go with this brand , don't waste your on the other stuff.Leapers has stepped up their game from ten years ago and far surpassed all the foreign made competition , period.!

Beautiful! Compliments any gun. Quality product.Flip up covers are nice. Graduated windage and elevation and Swat controls are nice.

Scope rings are attached to your gun using thumb screws. Should be allen head screws so you can tighten them down good as they will come loose on guns with a good kick.

Very good on the Parallax settings! No visual drift at all. Nice and clear and sharp.

Big and beautiful. Not slip shod or cheap. You can tell effort was put into making this one. Works Great!

Uses thumb screws to mount the rings to the gun. They come loose easily. Need to be allen heads so that you can tighten them well

One of the reasons that I bought this was for good control over the Parallax setting for maximum accuracy. Works Great!!!

Very clear lenses, illuminated reticle very nice at night, included scope caps are great keeps lenses clean, easy-tap simple and effictive

Get the big wheel for AO, makes it so much easyer

Very clear lenses, lite cross hairs very good at night, ez-tap simple and easy to use. very good scope.

Crystal clear sight picture. Mil-dot/wide range of adjustments. Finger adjustable turrets. Illuminated reticle. Max-Strength mounts are great.

The 36 color illumination is slightly ridiculous. The back lens cover on mine frequently gets knocked loose because the battery housing prohibits it from going on all the way.

During the NRFTC event at Crosman, the mounts failed to hold the scope in place on my Hatsan 125 NPSS. But, a little Loctite fixed that problem. The scope holds zero like a dream, and if maintained will last a lifetime. The lifetime warranty from leapers is also a good deal.

Good clarity. Nice reticle... lots of mil dots. Like the side adjustability of the objective.

Considering it has locks on the vertical and horizontal settings this scope seems to lose zero very often.

Fairly easy zoom, good image for the price at higher magnification. The exit pupil gets a bit small in the evenings (You have to reduce magnification at dusk. Think about the 56mm if you hunt really early or really late) but this is a good middle ground. If you are 'old' and your irises don't open as much 44mm might be plenty ;)

The parallax adjustment is very stiff, it needs a wheel. You definitely have trouble adjusting it while viewing your target. The illumination is worse than useless. The brightness lets you toggle between variations of bright and blinding with nothing really for actual dim light (with fresh batteries anyway). The lighting looks like someone covered your reticle in the corresponding color of glitter rather than smooth color. The reticle is also visually obstructing for my taste but that is mostly on me.

There are better scopes without the illumination that will serve you just as good/better. I got this with high hopes and low expectations and arrived in the middle. There is an ocular adjustment hiding under the rear cover just FYI for those non 20/20 folk. Put a wheel on the side and it is serviceable. Illumination: 2/5 technically functional and as colorful as advertised but useless Build: 4/5 Sturdy but stiff, covers are cheap but functional Optics: 4/5 Not great, but not $600 either. "Ok for the price" Overall I would say it isn't a bad buy. I haven't tested how well it tracks a zero though. I just got my zero and noted my hold offs. There are probably scopes without the illumination that are better, but I don't make a habit of buying scopes in this price to point you toward one.(My proper target rifle has NightForce glass and it has spoiled me)

Decent optics. Not as crisp as my Hawk but very good. Parallelax ajdustment is easy. Lighted reticle is nice but I think all the color options are a little overkill.

The covers are rugged but get in the way. As mentioned I think the number of color options are overkill. Zoom mechanism seems particularly tight - Workable but could be easier.

Get the swat wheel - It's cheap and awesome.

It is a lot of scope for the money. The side wheel parallax adjustment is very convenient although it really needs the optional larger side wheel to shine. Holds zero great. Click turrets make it easy to adjust for your range. The lens covers are a nice touch.

Include dovetail mounting rings.

Near full zoom, you lose a little clarity, but it is still a pleasure to use. At 12X zoom, the side parallax adjustment works very well for distance estimating out to about 40 yards. I followed a scope setup guide (meant for field target shooters) and with the turrets in the middle of their adjustment range I did not need to shim the scope. I have plenty of adjustment to make my Benjamin Marauder (.22) zero in at 70 yards (the farthest I have tried so far).

Pretty clear images even out to the scope edges. Bright views of images. Mill dots are pretty clear, and clean. I like the colors and intensity adjustments of the cross hair illumination options.

I would like to have a larger objective adjustment wheel in place of the knob. Ranges indicated on objective knob are not close for range estimation.

30mm tube rings with 11mm bases are not included and only a small number of brand types available. Good luck on that one. Overall I like the scope, I would buy it again for the price.

Crisp, even at fifteen yards. I like the locking windage and elevation adjustments, as well as the side objective lense adjustment.

As this scope is being sold for pellet rifle and, as many pellet rifles incorporate 11mm dovetail mounts, it would be nice to supply dovetail mounts so 11mm dovetail mounts don't have to be purchased spearately.

This scope seems to be a good fit for the Hatsan 125 sniper and Beeman dual barrel pellet guns

I HAVE TWO OF THESE SCOPES. HAVE SERVED ME WELL. ONE ON MY DISCOVERY AND ONE ON MY TRAIL ALL WEATHER 22 CAL.

NOTHING

GREAT SCOPE FOR THE MONEY AND ALL YOU NEED FOR A 22 CAL RIFLE.
