## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on my Gamo swarm magnium?**
A: Sure after awhile regular scopes can and most will give way to the recoil if a spring piston air rifle, but Vortex scopes even the cheaper ones are pretty rugged. Even if it does break after 6 months, 6 years, or 60 years, that's the amazing (almost unheard of) warranty and customer service time to shine. Just call Vortex and send it back, they will ship you out a brand new. No questions asked! I sell firearms for a living, and it's incredible to deal with this company when you rarely have to.

**Q: What are the best rings to mount this scope on a remington 700 30-06. Something that wont break the bank?**
A: Look up Vortex Optics Hunter 1” scope rings!  They work great, I think $16 for two.  You will probably need the Medium height.

**Q: How would this work for 7.62.54r cartridge? Are there other Vortex optic that would be better?**
A: I think it would work fine. I use it for a 30-06 and the ballistics between 30-60, 7.62 NATO and 7.62x54r are not terribly different. I got sub moa at 100 yards.

**Q: 1" tube or 30mm?**
A: The Vortex Copperhead 4-12x44 scope has a 1" tube.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Scope. Excellent Value

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent scope for the money.

Decent scope. My only issue is the eye relief is not the best, but other than that…no issues.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Dad likes it
*by R***E on November 16, 2023*

It's too basic for my own purposes, but it was the 1st modern rifle scope that my father has ever had. I have been a Vortex diehard for many years and purchased dozens of different models, from the FFP Diamondback 4-16x44 MRAD EBR-2C Reticle, to the Razor FFP 3-18x50 EBR-7C MRAD reticle, Venom 5-25x56 and Strike Eagle 1-6x24... The Enhanced Battle Reticle (the Christmas Tree upside down) is great for ranging- the 2C is good, but the numbers are inside the vertical and horizontal planes, but the 7C moved them out to the ends of each hash mark, and the models with illumination are very helpful with open center cross hairs. Back to the Copperhead-- I had a budget of "no more than $100!" which I talked him into allowing me to adjust that to $150. I wanted to get him the crossfire II BDC reticle, but it had gone up to $199 and this one was $130, so it's what he wanted. I helped him with mounting & zeroing. it ultimately was the best thing for him. He loves the clarity, the capped turrets that were hand adjustable vs his last lifetime of scopes that require a dime or 33 flat to adjust the MOA (LOL he's old school) I couldn't possibly find it hard to imagine anything being able to impress him more- considering that he hates my MRAD EBR-2C & 7C reticles, and really REALLY hates exposed turrets despite their zero stops & the highly unlikely chance of "moving on their own " as he has expressed his worries about. I recommend this to anyone who is new to hunting scopes in the modern day and especially if you are like my dad and just coming from a steel tubed scope from the Vietnam era (okay maybe a little bit of an exaggeration lol ) but his last scope was definitely built in the 80s or 90s.
