Seems odd several well know places show it in stock but you are on "pre-order"/back order. Who did you order from? Or?

John
I ordered directly from barra air guns i talked to this lady twice now 2 days apart and she said it sorry I know we’re backed up and getting them out as quickly as possible I said to her I shoulda just ordered off of a small company but what got me was they said in stock and it was a cyber Monday package deal with a few things and I thought that was the only way I was getting it quickly because everywhere else at the time said out of stock but they okie doked me for sure
 
I just love to shoot. Mostly long range and I know that the barra 250z isn’t gonna be the greatest for that but hey will see not nothing crazy distance wise but I just enjoy shooting and small game hunting.
Welcome aboard!
I enjoy long range shooting as well, and found with airguns I didn't need much real range. For example a 400 fps,10 meter target gun, shoots apx 33 feet. So shooting at 75 feet is long range for it and presents the same common long range challenges.
Some of those challenges are in the hardware.
A scope with adjustable parallax & focus helps.
Some sort of way to remove cant error is a necessity, like hanging a plumbob to reference against your vertical cross hair, set in view of your targets.
With a 400 fps .177 cal gun I have had 3.75" of drift in a hard crosswind, so Some wind flags help you to judge and compensate for it
A decent front and rear shooting bag and table will also be in order.
Most shooters could get a set up done in their yard.

I look forward to seeing where your plans take you. 👍

So I ended up making the purchase on the arken sh4j genII and I love it so far it’s a beautifully made well built scope. Hopefully I can get it mounted on my barra 250z today because my gun comes today as well I’m super excited I’ll post some pics and info later or tomorrow. I’m south eastern pa and of course it’s raining today so we’ll see. My luck 🤦‍♂️

Welcome to the Rabbit Hole!
I own 3 Arken SH4-J 6X24X50 scopes.
Many folks complain about the reticle being too faint at low magnification. They suit my needs perfectly since I shoot long range and the magnification is never set to less than 12X anyway. It's a fine scope for $320 with lifetime warranty.
I've seen a few reviews with the 250z shooting long range and it seems to do okay. Tuning and the right pellet can get you where you wanna be.
Good luck!
