Does your scope lack the AO adj on the front scope bell? Ever y pellet gun scope needs it to adj for short ranges.

Good info wrench.  Heres what the guys on other forums are saying is the perfect scope "if there is such a thing" for the Hatsan 125.  Little more than i wanted to spend, but if it lasts then its good.  

More reading on that gun tells me its a killer out to 50 yards on coyotes, and game of that size.  Tho i plan to use it like my .177's it would be nice in knowing i could drop a yote if given the chance.  

Pretty sure thats the gun of choice, but tonight i will read more on the others.  

The .25 pellets are harder to come by than the .22 is my only draw back. But ordering 500 online shouldnt be an issue.  Im a "buy it in person" kinda guy.

Yeah it's a pretty cheesy scope as far as it's features, but it is actually built really well.  They are made by Hammers, it is this one...  http://hammersbinoculars.stores.yahoo.net/scop39nor.html

I was going to adjust the objective lens to clear it up at longer ranges but they must have put some permanent loc-tite on that outer ring because I can't break it loose without taking some channel-lock pliers or a pipe wrench to it.  I'm too broke to replace it with a REAL scope now so I'll have to live with it a little while longer.

Sounds like it's about as weak as your average CO2 pistol.

I wouldn't be broke, and could buy a new scope....if I could put this thing down and get some work done around here 

But whatever.  Look at the kill zone shot I just pulled off on this Brachiosaurus at 35 yards !

A little low and back for a brachiosaurus

He should be able to finish him off with a head shot before he limps away on 3 legs.

Looks like a gut shot, but probably wont go far! Ordered a new trigger for the Benjamin today. Looks like this guy makes them for Gamo's too. https://www.charliedatuna.com/   Have not mounted the scope yet. Want to get it dialed in with open sights first.

Beware some of the internet do it yourself trigger fixes.  I fubarred a Stoeger a few years back based on a common internet post on how to tune one of their triggers.

Charlie da tuna is a reputable one.
