Must have given up its soul.Is that the U-MOA UTG from Extreme Tactical?I have only used mine twice, and it is on a PCP: a Rotek.
Wow just a 1/2 hour ago one of my cheap scopes spit her bits on my r9. But then it was my great deal 50$ Walmart Simmons.Too bad to, it was tack driving nice clear good wide view, like man this things nice. Just started hitting high and left or right so I turned the elevation turret and no clicks . Just turning free ..lol... Springers .So it's back to Walmart tomorrow for refund or exchange. Oh well guess I'll update that thread I started on it as a no go ...😭So it R.I.P for the S.O.B

I've had this scope since Christmas and it's been on my R9 until this morning. It's been an excellent scope until this morning. I was shooting 1-1/2" spinners this morning at 30, 35, and 40 yds and all of a sudden I started missing. I was puzzled, I checked the stock screws, etc and couldn't figure it out. It had suddenly started hitting 1" to the left. I started shooting at a paper target and noticed it began creeping back to where it was sighted originally. Everything seemed okay but then it happened again but this time it didn't go back. I tried turning the turret to bring it back to the right but it won't move. What happened to my UTG 3-12x44 ??
Barska may go for 1001 shots , Deecon sir

Springers not so much. Especially if you have barrel droop. Their warranty is great but I eventually got tired of sending them back for replacement. Fix the droop and go with an Airmax and be done with it. Cheap scopes cost too much time and effort to warrant the savings. On Springers at least.

Fix the droop and go with an Airmax and be done with it. Cheap scopes cost too much time and effort to warrant the savings. On Springers at least.I've already mounted a new Hawke Airmax 4-12x40AO on the R9.No barrel droop on this R9. After I mounted the new Airmax windage was all that needed to be adjusted to zero at 30 yds. I may have to move elevation about 4 or 5 clicks though.

What happened to my UTG 3-12x44 ??Not sure, but this is the same thing that happened to my UTG 2-16x44 I had on the Parrus. Too much elevation to catch zero and then one day it just started shooting left, I kept adjusting until it gave up. I talked with UTG warranty for a couple days. In the mean time I mechanically zero’d it and put it on a different rifle. The scope is fine, the Parrus had too much droop, even with a compensator rail under it. If you don’t have a rail under yours, you may try it and it could be fine.
