Congrats.A simple MOA or MILDOT scope will do ya just fine. The Badger is good for about 100-125 yards so a basic mildot scope will cover those ranges (out to 125).

Guess they are having trouble getting them done? I knew I was pre-ordering, but I was hoping the original date of early Feb was going to work. Boo hoo!Word of advice. FORGET about the gun for a while. Just forget about it. It took me some time to learn this. THEN, IT WAS HERE!Lots of new guns are like this. PRE ORDER, PRE ORDER........then waitProbably a good idea. Then when it arrives it will be a total surprise! So do you know who Epox is? I can't find ANY information on them...

Guess I need to move on to something else for the next 45+ days And try and forget about it. No more animal planet for a little while
Has anyone heard anything about the badger shipping date
look under Ga shooting events we get together and shoot airguns you could try out a big bore then.
Think I've decided on this scope. UTG 4X32 1" BugBuster Scope, AO, 36-color Mil-dot, QD Ringshttps://www.leapers.com/prod_detail.php?mitem=optic&level1=36-color_Enhanced_Illumination&level2=&itemno=SCP-M432AOIEWQ&status=&mtrack=5mHaven't pulled the trigger on ordering it yet. But if I find it inadequate for the badger I'll put it on my np2.

Spent all your money on the gun, pump and bullets?If you haven't already ordered it; don't. You're not going to be happy with how fat the reticle is. The 6X has the same reticle and more magnfication, and it's STILL pretty fat. OK for big game maybe, or small game at close distances, but not really idea. They also have very short eye relief.Don't do it. Spend a bit more, and at LEAST get the 4-14x44. That's an nice scope for the money. Or if money's really tight, the 3-9x40 Leapers. 4X and a fat reticle, and you're almost as well off with a peep sight.
Just noticed the "Estimated in stock date is 2017-04-28"On air guns depots website it hasn't changed in a few weeks. It's do for a change any day now 😜
