Hi All
first time back for quite too long
. . . . I have recently acquired a .22 Gamo Swarm Maxim (I ebay purchased it from a US seller, I have heard people talk about a Magnum version? how does one tell which is which please? , it appears to be usable out to about 60m with heavy pellets for turkeys, which is my main on farm pest control at present, even with the crappy gamp scope - anyone have any good recommendation for a good scope for this gun, it is used on foot or across my back on a sling out on he quad, and whilst i am careful with my guns, it is a rough environment, so need something rugged.
many thanks in advance

The Magnum version would be the Swarm Magnum in the US market, Replay Magnum everywhere else, I think. I have a regular Magnum IGT and I think I'd like to have the Swarm Version.
As for scopes, my Magnum is still rocking the original 3-9x40 AO scope. Probably about 2500 shots through it.
Most people say the combo scopes are junk, but so far this one's treated me nothing but nice.
I'm probably going to pick up a Center Point 4-16x40 IR MD AO scope. I've been reading that it can handle the unique recoil generated by springers.
