Will a rifle scope handle the recoil found with BP?

[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 173809, member: 2736"] len The ones to watch out for are the high velocity air rifles. I know it sounds funny but they have recoil in both directions and rifle scopes are made for one direction and do not hold up well. BP rifles have a slower recoil velocity so they are easy on rifle scopes except around the primer. If exposed to these gases they will corrode the scope if not cared for . I hope this helps J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
