Page 6 - UTG Drooper Scope Rail, 11mm-to-Weaver Reviews

This scope mount is rock solid on my Gamo bone collector it does not move

nothing

It solved my problem with barrel droop my Gamo now shoots tight groups

Very solid base for my RWS 48, even though my gun does not have a barrel droop.I use it anyway to stabilize my UTG scope.Mke sure you use blue loctite for the four side srews and the two top screws.After 300 rounds,there is no movement at all.Use medium rings for your 40mm scope .High rings not needed unless you are using a 50mm scope.

It is a tad too high...Should make it a little lower.

This is only good for RWS rifles with T06 triggers.T05 triggers need a different model.

Not an expert on scope rails for sure, but this one seems to do the job very well. It's made of sturdy material, and easy to install. I suppose it will last forever. What is there to wear out?

All seems well.

Works good for me.

Works like a charm on my RWS side cocker.

Nothing

Needed if you buy a Leapers scope.

Easy installation. All metal construction and all Allen key are included with step by step instructions. Took about 10 minutes to install.

After talking with several people at Pyramid, I found out that a lot of piston air guns have barrel droop. Mine is a Gamo .177 Bone collector whisper. After purchasing a new Leapers UTG 3-9x40 scope, I ran out of elevation while zeroing the rifle. I'm used to iron sights, so this was totally new to me. With the droop compensator installed, it took 3 "clicks" from the scopes factory zero to get 1" groups benched at 25yds. Wish I knew this before buying the new scope!
Gamo's scope is a very poor optic at best and rather than send it back, I threw it out and bought a Leapers. It's heavier than the Gamo, but now the accuracy is just about what I expected. I did have to talk to 3 different "Tech" people to correct my problem though and all had different opinions. I got anything from cleaning my barrel to sending the scope back to finally buying the compensator and new Hawke rings.

Well made. Great product if you need it.

If it's possible make them LOWER! It sets the scope so high you can't get your face to the stock!

Not all drop barrel springers need droop compensation. My RWS 34 Compact didn't need this part. I used Leepers Acu Rings med. ht. With one scope stop pin to mount a 3x12x44 Leepers scope and it worked great. Pyramid is the best place for advice. They know their stuff!

includes allen wrenches ; good fitting item; surely fixes droop barrel problems

could save costs by omitting the wrenches;

use #10 nylon washers for tighter and more secure installations even if using loc-tite blue

The mount had the allen screw to drop down in the receiver of my Gamo Bone Collector gas piston rifle. The recoil is substantial and the screw "locks" things down.

Nope.

Pyramid Air may not always have the "best" price on a particular item, but they almost always have it in stock. Customer service is awesome and items ship quickly...

Barrel droop compensation. Seems to be built well.

DOES NOT WORK ON THE BENJAMIN TITAN NP! The stop pin location is not back far enough for this adapter to work on the Benjamin Titan NP. The stop pin location needs to be moved back about one slot width.

Length of the Adapter Four Set Screws Stop pin Once this thing is set, it feels rock solid.

Perhaps UTG could offer an adapter that allows for more compensation of droop? Perhaps a selection guide for matching adapters with specific scopes?

This adapter worked well enough to drastically improve the amount of droop; however, it didn't completely solve the issue. I ended up shimming the scope to allow for enough elevation. Before I shimmed the scope I was at maximum elevation adjustment, and my shots were still roughly 8"-12" low. Once I cut a couple pieces of UTG's thick clear plastic packaging (recommended by Pyramyd Air Tech Support) to fit between my rear scope ring and scope I was able to obtain proper elevation adjustment.

My current setup:
Stoeger X20S
UTG Drooper Scope Rail 11mm to Weaver Adapter
UTG 30mm Max Strength Rings, Low, Picatinny, Twist-Lock Base
UTG 4-16x44 AO SWAT Accushot Rifle Scope ("shimmed")

Keep in mind that this was my personal experience, and it may not happen with your scope and rifle setup. I don't have enough resources to confirm otherwise.

This UTG mount went together with my RWS 34 (T06 trigger) like peanut-butter and jelly. UTG 4x32 scope with weaver rings mounted perfectly on top. Directions were clear and easy to understand.

Nothing.

Discovered there is a U-channel down the center of this rail that allows continued use of the stock open sights on my RWS 34. Nice!

I bought this to stabilize the scope on my rws600. It worked so well I am getting 3/4in groups at 35 yards. It was amazing how much it helped.

Nothing

This is a solid secure mount for any scope.

a very stable mount.

I would make it more obvious which end goes in front.

no

clamps tight to the rifle

sits the scope WAY to high off the barrel. scope bell should be 1 or 2 mm off the barrel for elite accuracy

Being new to air rifle shooting and it's complexities, I am learning a great deal about this sport/hobby. The Drooper Scope Rail is a great innovation for "barrel droop". It immediatley adjusts for elevation and provides more adjustments for raising your groupings higher.

Nothing at this point.

Product works.

Well made, very precise, looks terrific, mounts tightly. Other mounting systems I've tried leaned to the left a bit, but not this one! It has two stop screws, four clamping screws, and decent drop compensation.

I had to trim the "wedges" that actually fit into the dovetail, on the rear of the unit. I only found this necessary to get the rail back far enough on the receiver. I'm sure most guns won't have this problem, but one of mine needed the mount to go all the way to the back of the dovetail, where it actually widens before ending (look at yours, you'll see what I mean). Not a big deal, just a few minutes with a Dremel tool, and all is well. Probably wouldn't be necessary with a longer scope.

Well worth the money, and easy to install. Bear in mind that this adapter will raise your scope height about 15mm/little more than half an inch, so think of that when you're ordering scope mounts. Most scopes seem to come with "medium" rings, so I suggest buying a set of short rings as well, to make sure you can achieve a proper cheek weld.

Solid and economical! Easy to install come complete! Perfect for .25 droop compensation on my Diana air rifle

Nothing for the price compared to bkl or beeman or any other it's top quality

You don't need to spend 50+ dollars to get a great product mounts very secure and follow instructions and you won't be disappointed!

Works superbly for accounting for barrel droop,and adding on extra large scopes on rifles.

Should come in different lengths,and a steeper angle as well,as I added one of these to a ruger pistol and had to cut the length and increase the angle to accommodate the gun.

Scope shift is always an additional problem to elevation. ALWAYS use blue Loctite for all threads,and split lock washers for the ring and rail screws.

Nice product, fit perfect

None

Adjust center screw gently

My RWS Diana had significant barrel droop. It was so bad I had to set both the iron sites and then the scope sites when I put it on to maximum elevation. After installing this rail the scope zeroed in in about ten shots without going to extremes.

Nothing

Easy to install and stays steady.
