First Review

Good
Points

Relatively cheap, Airgun Rated, Easily adjustable, Can focus at close as
3m,
The optics are very crisp and clear, the turrets can be turned by hand.

Bad Points

Screw-in dust covers, no Mildot or multiple aim points.
Range finding is not good, the AO is very inaccurate.

Second Review

The
BSA 2-7x32 AO TT scope is an OK, relatively inexpensive scope. I haven't had
mine long and have only tested it on my QB78/.177 so far. I wanted a low
power, close focusing scope for ratting, and this scope should suffice. The
optics aren't great, but in my not so brightly lit basement range they do
gather plenty of light. I agree the AO isn't accurate, but it does focus
down to at least 15 feet. Different power settings make a huge difference in
the AO setting. At 4 to 7 power, 12 yds registers as approximately 14 to 16
yds. on the AO scale, but at 2 and 3 power I have to set the AO on 20 to 25
yds to focus at 12 yds., kind of wacky, but as long as I know where to set
the AO for different power settings, it'll do for its intended purpose.

Fourth Review:BSA
2-7x32 AO TT on QB78. Very clear optics. AO does not seem to be

calibrated, good scope for the money, bought a 2nd one.

Fifth Review:BSA
2-7x32AO TT

Not much to add to the above, but wanted to mention that although this
airgun-rated scope is rated for medium to heavy recoil use, mine did not
hold up to a BSA Lightning XL. However, it would be a good choice for an
inexpensive C02 rifle, as long as you can find one for less than a Tasco
Golden Antler air rifle scope, which can be had for about $30.
