Guys,

Would want a high end scope recommendation, looking at Diavari from Zeiss, Leupold, Swarovski and Sightron.  Now here's the kicker, I have a very high end Daystate Airwolf Tactical MCT pcp but want to use the scope for target and also if I get a rifle later I would want the scope to work on both.  It's the Bentley of air rifles... and awesome but I really wanted to see if the high end scopes will work well.  

Thanks,

TBonez

For high end air rifle target, I would suggest the S&B PMII 12-50x56. I believe the scope was originally intended as an air rifle scope as you can even have the option to have a lower parralax adjustment range.

A friend uses this on his PCP, and his long-range comp rifle. The glass is awesome!
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

I have a March 3-24MOA/MOA on the way.  My wife did not buy me this one, but she did say "get whatever you want..."  Good enough for me...

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.

It is the same when you are stupid.

I think the S&B goes down to 10m which is 10.963 yards. Just becareful of what scope you select as I hear that some air guns can destroy a scopes internals.

Wow that thing is liek 4K.  Also, it is the scope being made by S&B for the Military, they were awarded a 32M contract to make these scopes.
