Cheaper UTG scope on magnum springer?

I hope this is the right place to ask, but I have a question about the cheaper UTG scopes. Long story short, I have a Benjamin Trail NP XL 725 .25 caliber. I bought it used and it came with a Barska scope. I'm pretty sure the scope has given up the ghost. At the moment I'm kind of in a tight spot financially and I just want a scope that will take the recoil. I don't care about the bells and whistles. Does anyone know if the cheaper UTG scopes like the Hunter ($40 at pyramyd) will stand up to the recoil for any length of time?
I can't post a link for some reason but the one I was looking at is the UTG 4x32 Hunter Rifle Scope, Mil-Dot Reticle, 1/4 MOA, 1" Tube, 3/8" Rings

Hey Caption,
Before you give up on your scope, you may want to take some of the advice a few of the members are throwing my way. These guys know what they're talking about. Check out " Is it me or the Scope" on this gate. If nothing else it will keep you busy until you can get your hands on a new scope. Oh ya, I'm shooting with a UTG 3-9 x 40 and having a few issues myself and "Welcome to the club"

If your Barska has truly bitten the dust.....and if you can save for a slightly higher cost UTG/Leapers model, would recommend a TS model. Have read reviews about the True Strength models holding up to harder recoiling guns.

Thanks for the help guys. In talking to someone about this he offered to buy the gun from me and I think I am going to sell it to him. I'll take a bit of a loss on this one but maybe I can get another project moving this way. Thanks again.
