Sub-$200 Scope Recommendations for a Springer

[Airgun Jeremy]

I am in need of a sub-$200 dollar springer rated scope for my RWS Diana Model 48/52. I believe this is considered a magnum air rifle, so I want something that can handle its heavy recoil. I have heard good things about Hawke and Hammers scopes, but want a second opinion before proceeding with a purchase. Right now, my only criteria is $200 or less.

Best I can recommend under 200...

I looked it up. I do not see where this scope is springer rated. By chance, do you have an item number? Thank you

Brother. I gave discovery optics Off of the horrid Amazon a try. Absolutely shocked. I did a side by side with the discovery FFP 4-16-44 against my arken ffp and my diamondback tac FFP. It tracked and returned perfectly. Held zero. The parallax knob was extremely close to exactly on point. The only place it isn't as good is chromatic aberration. Otherwise. Absolutely blown away.

Any of the UTG 30mm tubed models are springer rated . There will be "tru strength" somewhere in the description. Several options will be under $200.

I have Hawke & Hammers scopes on some powerful airguns, but i use a zero-recoil mount on all of them. They are $20 on Amazon.

Sorry no line #. It is the scope of choice sold by AOA for use on HW springers. Also AEAC has a youtube video review with it matched with a HW97. Good stuff.

Crosman's scope brand, CenterPoint, came with magnum-power 2018 Benjamin Trail NP XL .22. Recommend 3-9x40AO, the CenterPoint 4X, on Crosman F4, was no good, replaced with barely used 3-9x40 from eBay for $50. WM
