There are many variables involved in regards to purchasing a scope. Is it for target shooting, plinking, hunting, long range and of course your budget.

Honestly stay away from any BSA / GAMO / Tasco scopes and go with much better ones from Bushnell, Leupold, Nikon and Centerpoint. Of all the mentioned brands I think better glass is with the Nikons

By the way here is a very good site with plenty of info about scope selection:

Thanks Grizz, Yesterday I put the 3x9x44 that came with my POS falcon hunter, was planing on shootin' it today to see if it could hold zero. Temps at my house right now is -40 so, no way 0 is my limit
Any who thanks for the suggestions

be sure to get an airgun rated scope no matter what you decide on.
