Scope my future Benjamin Marauder

[Wojtek]

So I have my sights set on a Benjamin Marauder 25cal air rifle and I want to mount a good set of glass on it. I think I am leaning more towards a mil-dot scope. I am interested in spending the value of the airgun itself (500 bucks) on a good scope.

Any suggestions?

Look into the Leupold EFR 3-9. Made to be able to focus close range for airgun shooting.

I use a PA micro dot on my 22cal. It has never lost 0! I shoot my pellet gun 25-50 yards and don't need glass for that.

Make sure it has an AO that will focus down to 25yds or less. I have a $70 centerpoint on mine and it works great and a Vortex crossfire on another air rifle. What are you planning to do with it? Benchrest? Hunting? Field Target?

Hunting primarily. Vermin abound and need a check...

The centerpoint works great for hunting on mine. I keep a holdover chart on the scope cover for 6x and 12x. When it's over 50 yds, I usually range with the AO at 12x and consult the chart. I leave it at 6x for closer ranges. I think the centerpoint is the most popular for hunting with the marauder. If you want better quality, you have many options.

Just look for an AO that focuses down to 25yds, and a mildot reticle.
