[QUOTE="Reelamin, post: 2376131, member: 42157"] Not at all. What ruins many scopes on a "airgun" is almost exclusively with "springers". The dual recoil putting recoil back and forward is what a lot of lower end scopes are not designed for. Even then if you spend a lot of money and put a 4-500 scope on a springer it will be fine. Older crossbows have very little forward recoil, and the newer versions the last 10 years or so even less. Mount it up and shoot your new rifle in bow season. [/QUOTE]
