Diana Diana 48

I have a Athlon Talos BTR gen 2 4-14 on my 48. I am using Hawke 1 inch offset mounts, I have 1500 pellets through this setup on my 100% factory 48. Excellent setup, with FX 15.9 grain pellets I am making 19.6 ftlbs and was able to hit field targets with 10mm kill zone repeatedly.

I would highly recommend the Athlon Talos BTR gen 2 scope to anyone needing a magnum springer scope.

No drooper or z mount needed
 
I am using a UTG scope on mine. And
I just installed a vortex kit in my Diana 48. It is very accurate but I wanted to reduce recoil to save the scope. Shooting 10.3 gr pellets at 880 fps it is still a power house. I don’t use it for hunting and when I do my part it’s a tack driver. So I might try a 12’ft lb spring. To soften it up even more. From the factory it is definitely the kind of gun that will brake a scope not rated for airguns. What happens is the reticle comes loose and starts rotating.

Good looking rifle, what is the barrel weight you have on it? I have one similar I put the hw 97 barrel weight, and not scoped so far saving to buy it 👋

I have a Sightron STac with close 2000 shots in a .22 Diana 54 at 22 fpe. I mounted it in Burris Signature Rings with inserts and it has been flawless. I own a Diana Zero Recoil Mount. It has been on a Diana 54, Diana75, and a FWB 300s. On all 3 guns there is not enough movement in the reticle to zero the windage. I have tried 3 different scopes, different brands and models.....none work with the mount. I believe the mount to be improperly manufactured.

The discovery 3x12 does not work we installed it Christmas day pellets all over the place tried everything thing possible to get it zeroed . so put the old scope back on bam back too stacking them this was on his gamo urban . everything was perfect on this scope glass from 5yrds to infinity worked . but the cross hairs didn't stay on target ????
Send it back. I have 6 Discovery scopes. 0 issues. Heck a gun fall out of my truck and landed on the scopes reticle turret, onconcrete. A couple of small scratches but it’s still holding zero.
