I wish I had tried one of these before my old spring ate a few scopes.
Has anyone tried this? I think it sounds like a great idea for spring guns. I always thought some of the issues was the springs hit so hard it moves the scope just a little which leads to pellets all over the place patterns.

Here is a video of it in action. At the very least it should save years of life for any scope as its not getting hit but the full force of each shot.

I use the Dampa mount on my Patriot .25

We have a member (HectorMedina) who has worked extensively with the ZR mount. He publishes an airgun blog on his website.
You can find it here: http://www.ctcustomairguns.com/hectors-airgun-blog/category/gear (http://www.ctcustomairguns.com/hectors-airgun-blog/category/gear)
If you move down to the third entry you will find a great deal of information about these mounts.

I've been asking folks that own a Gammo Magnum, how they like Gamo's "Recoil Reducing Rail" (Trippel R) Mount ! Regards - Tom

I don't think people realize how distructive magnum springers are on scopes. I suspect many issues with spring air guns is due to the scopes sights being mangled by the shock of each shot. I ruined a scope on one and it looked fine, the inside target would move a little each shot (Even though the mounts did not)
Putting a nice scope on a big springer is a no no. But one of these mounts would seem to help save the scope.
