BSA Sweet 17 3-9x40 AO

I read the other reveiws about putting it on a break barrel I am here to tell you
BSA has a great product and I've put a can of 250 pellets through my Octaine 22 cal and you can drive a nail with this scope .
Great scope works like a champ at 75 yds to 100 yds shooting varment..

Pros
Easy to sight in and use optics clear just great

Cons
None but make sure you get good mounts and once you sight it don't retibhten screws or mount clamps or you WILL be off. Center

Love this scope but, after reading reviews from others I decided against mounting it on a break barrel.

Pros
It has optic clarity of a much more expensive scope. Very very clear.

Cons
Apparently it won't take springer recoil. It would make a good choice for a pcp. The scope is actually made for the 17 HMR and has elevation compensation for that round. It won't be a useful feature on any air rifle but as a scope it's still pretty good and very inexpensive

I bought one of these many years ago for a rimfire. In that capacity is worked flawlessly (ignoring the turret markings since I was using it on a .22LR). I recently moved it to my Crosman 1077 because the AO is invaluable at the much shorter distances. However, at 10M the parallax reading is a touch beyond the 15 tick & at 15M it is between 50 & 70 ticks. I have not tried it on a springer & I don't plan to. Otherwise, the optics are clear and sharp. I can't comment on POI shift between magnifications because the 1077 isn't consistent enough over enough shots to convince me that the rifle isn't a factor.

Pros
Clear, bright, inexpensive

Cons
Inaccurate AO tick marks

Does not stand up to the recoil of a springer, my .177 np gun broke the reticle within 50 shots.

However it won't hold zero on a pellet gun (spring or gas) I don't know why Airgun Depot would have this scope come up with search if it's not for an airgun?
I'd return it, but it's my fault for not checking closer. It was doing great for the first 25 or 30 shots. I would recommend this scope for a firearm, but not an airgun.

This scope is built for a .17 caliber center fire rifle, not an air gun. It seems to be a pretty good scope, but I have less than 50 shots from my Browning under-leaver .177 pellet rifle with this scope mounted. The elevation / distance compensation turret is useless because of the difference in ballistics between .17 rifles and .177 air guns. The "double recoil" of spring powered air guns may cause this scope to deteriorate more quickly than a scope built for air guns. The scope that came with the Browning was fine, but it was so long that it was difficult to load the rifle. I put the Browning scope on a Power Piston air rifle that came with a really poor scope and bought this scope for the Browning. It is shorter, and allows easy loading on the Browning. On the negative side, I had to run the elevation turret almost all the way up to get the pellet strike point in the black at 25 yards. So far, I have not shot it at further distance. The elevation problem may be with the scope rings or the rifle itself, and not the scope. My only reason for not giving this scope a five star rating is that it is not made for air guns. Purchasing it from an air gun company, I was expecting a dedicatedly made product.

I originally put this scope on a Silent Cat, and later switched it over to my Benjamin NP2. Can't say anything bad about it, in fact it's a very nice scope if you ask me. I really like the capless turrents. Hate those caps. I've had this scope for a year or so and had to go back and look to see how much I paid for it. I think I actually paid more for mine than they are selling for now. Oh well, it's only about ten bucks, and I've well already gotten my money's worth, with what looks like may be an investment that yields good service for a long, long time.

Pros
Seems to never loose it adjustment.

Scope did not hold up on my GAMO Big Cat 1400. Within a few shots of sighting in the reticle was rotating inside scope tube. Nice scope, I just wouldn't recommend for a heavy recoil GAMO.

Pros
Awesome clarity Ease of adjustment

Cons
Heavy

Got a Berman 1100 and it has tore up a few scopes but so far sweet 17 scope has done a great job could hundred shots so far. Im getting another for my gamo silent cat.

Pros
Great for those air rifles that reverse recoil.

Cons
None

Nice scope solid built easy sighted hold zero so far mounted on my gamo hornet. 177 so works good from 3-9 power clear optics prefer fixed parallax for air guns avarage distances for hunting 20m 40m!! For quick target accusation I like the turret. Calibration for different pellets weights and caliber.over would buy again good scope for under $100 preferably go with Leapers Scopes I Owen a few of them

Pros
Good scope for under $100 solid build no problem as of yet time will tell.

Cons
Poor instructions on scope 17 hmr features be careful of turrets set screws their small Allen screws you must losing them removed turret to calibrated instructions vary vague
