I am looking into a new scope for my R1. One with mildots. I happen to have an SWFA Super Sniper that has been replaced by a new optic.
So I was thinking of using this on my R1. I would hate to destroy this scope. So my question is, how do you know if a scope is rated and built well enuf to ride atop of the mighty R1?

Don't know the age of your scope, but most of the better scopes have been more solidly built the last 10 years or so and should hold up on springers- larger manufacturers don't specify "airgun scope" on their units as this tends to cause confusion with the powderburner crowd (i.e. 95% of the market) where they then assume the scope is only meant to be used on airguns. If the unit has a lifetime warranty, if it does blow out, at least you'll have the ability to have it repaired/replaced.
