Have grown very fond of this scope until I mounted one on my Springer. (Tuned HW97) I have been trying to set it up for Hunter Piston and having problems with My parallax wheel being repeatable. I'm now on my 3rd attempt to set my range finding distance. Even coming from either each wheel distance (Near to far or Far to near) I do not find my wheel distance marks repeatable. Has anyone else had this problem with this scope on a Springer? My biggest problem is 10 to 20 yards. The farther distances no so much. I'm about ready to try another scope but thought I would ask for your input first.

Wow, no responses yet...? 🤔
Somebody must have some idea what's going on, or some suggestion...?! 🤔
Matthias 👍🏼😊
Is this a new scope? Can it be returned? That's all I got.
I have nothing specific about your scope and it's issue. All I have is when it comes to glass you usually get what you pay for. One will not find UTG-anything on any arm I have be it springer, pneumatic, pcp, metalic cartridge, or rubber band. YMMV.
if you can return it, its not Springer Proof at all
If the clicks are not repeatable, replace the scope. If they are, go by what the scope will do, don't rely on the scopes increments you might need to measure, shoot and mark.

ya true but if it WAS working fine and acted up after putting it on a Springer, then its the Scope is not Springer recomended

Are you going by what the wheel says or have you calibrated it?
I have calibrated the distances the old fashion way.
@bill-day I would replace the scope...
