Page 4 - UTG Bug Buster Compact CQB Reviews

Well constructed, sturdy and the compact size. Sharp picture and good magnification and the adjustable objective allows focus even up close. Compliments the appearance of my MK-177, too!

Magnification adjustment is a little stiff, but I suspect that will get better over time. Included rings are a little difficult to adjust; didn't use them anyway, instead using high rings from another UTG scope.

I mounted this on a Crosman MK-177-don't laugh! If you have the patience, that gun is actually pretty darn good-very accurate with Gamo Rockets and H&N Baracudas and Baracuda Hunter Extremes-even out to 40 yards. And reasonably strong at that distance-can pierce a tough PowerAde bottle at that range. The rings-since the rail on the MK-177 is plastic I was afraid the included rings would crush it. I know you can adjust them but it didn't seem to do much good. So I just opted to use a set of high 1" rings that came with a different scope. Still, this is a neat little scope that's great at close and mid range. I had actually been waiting nearly a year to get it! And I was not disappointed!

Compact and light but that is probably why it is no good.

The cheap plastic lens are terrible. There is no, none, nada, edge resolution. Completely useless except in the middle of the lens. I bought a Leapers/UTG scope with my first Marauder. I gave it away to an enemy. I should have learned my lesson. Junk! Junk!

Buy Hawke or Leopold and save yourself some grief and save your eyesight!

Compact and comes with sunshade.

The entire lens system. Totally useless. Typical Leapers quality. I had another one on my Marauder. I gave it away to an enemy.

Don't waste your money. It focuses in the center of the lens only. Edge sharpness is worthless. I would return it but it would cost to much to ship.

Extremely clear, easy to focus and sight in.

Nothing.

Make sure you order the right mounts, this package comes with Weaver mounts. The Pyramid staff was very kind to exchange for the right mounts to fit my Hatsan 95.

Clear optics, illuminated optics and easy to adjust.

Nothing

Very small and light weight scope. I have it mounted on my Marauder pistol and I think it's a perfect match for it. The AO on the scope is awesome. I never though I would use it to focus down under 10 yards at any point but I've found that doing some literal up close bug busting is very fun. I was playing with the scope when I first unboxed it and I could dial down the AO and read the small print on boxes 5 yards away with the scope on 9 power. The quality is very crisp and clear. The illuminated reticule is a neat feature to have when the sun goes down, it actually helps alot.

At 3 and 4 power there is a pretty strong fish eye effect on the lens. The ad shows that you can turn on the light when aiming at a black bird to see your crosshairs better, however the light really isn't visible unless you're indoors or the sun is starting to go down.

You're probably going to have to ditch the scope rings it comes with as they're weaver and not dovetail like most air rifle receiver mounts. I also found I had to use high scope rings since this scope is very low profile.

perfect size, light, clear.

offer with a set back mount as a combo

This is my favorite back yard scope. I now have 4 of them. For up to 30 yds I can't find anything I like better. In close they are unbeatable.

This scope is tough and ready for the recoil air guns will give it. Extremely well made with very clear optics. The windage and elevation are made very easy with the turrets and lock design. A little more pricey than some scopes but well worth it.

The clip on mounts didn't seem to impress me. Standard mounts would work better for me.

This is my third UTG scope and I wouldn't put any other scope on my guns.

price, clarity, durability and ease of use. Also capable of being used in a variety of lighting and weather conditions. Seems to hold zero like a boss! Sturdy enough for a magnum springer. I have one mounted on my Bejamin Discovery .177 and one on a .22 cal Hatsan 125TH.

The only thing would be the FOV, but that can be had on another model.

If you have a dovetail groove, order a one-piece mount. This one only comes with Weaver rings. Says that in the description, but seems that folks read the reviews more than product description. Super scope for the price. Works great for close range and longer range shots. The mil-dot reticle is a plus for ranging and holdover/under and windage.

Focus down to 3 yds, ease of adjustment and compact size.

Fits my 2250XE nicely.

turrets great turrets wish my hawks had turrets like this. holds zero no problem all in all spend the money you wont be disappointed.

better glass mine has a little fog or something around the edges of the sight picture. take the illuminated stuff out its garbage i dont need it and dont use it even when the light gets low enough and i go to use it the lowest setting is too much it lights up the whole tube. switch the glass etched if anything but even then i still dont use it on my hawks....ALSO CHANGE THE RETICAL TO A FINE RETICAL THIS ONE IS TOO FAT BUT IT WORKS

i have this scope on a crosman fury .177 nitro piston and i have shot woodchucks a raccoon targets after targets after targets after....ok you get it the scope holds zero flat out no problems 1 inch bull at 40 yards is no problem for me with this scope on that gun with no wind.....great scope SPEND THE MONEY YOU WILL LOVE IT

A nice little, light weight scope. Optics are on the high side of "good enough". The package makes it an excellent deal. Tough enough for a magnum springer, but excellent on 22 caliber firearms too. Inexpensive way to get into a Mil-Dot scope or an illuminated reticle if you have no experience with one. Love the 2" screw on sunshade.

Without raising the price: Print the mil-dot chart in a larger typeface. Would probably raise the price: All controls work smoothly, but are very stiff. The scope caps could fit the tubes a little tighter so they wouldn't move when the caps are opened. The reticles are a little thick. For the price, no real complaints.

This is a fun scope to use for plinking when you don't need anything higher in power for extreme accuracy.

Nice clear easy to adjust and holds it's settings.

I would like to see reg 11 MM rings included.

This is just a perfect scope for my 5 to 40 yard back yard shooting. I just ordered another.

Compact body, smooth controls and excellent eye relief. Pyramyd Air service department is extremely helpful!

Initially I could not get the scope to hold a setting. This was first noticed on my CZ455. I transferred the scope to my R-7 and experienced the same problem. I subsequently 'zeroed' the scope following instructions from Pyramyd Air service department. It now holds setting. Is this a common problem?

I like the compact size, lightweight, adjustable objective, mil-dot reptile and the included accessories. Scope caps and sunshade are nice additional items. I like the 3 yard parallax adjustment.

Maybe introduce a 4-12x version.

If you want a compact mil-dot hunting scope for shooting indoors and out, buy this scope. I shoot 25 feet (8 yards) indoors. Many scopes do not allow you to adjust the focus to such a short range. I have no problems shooting at 50 yards mounted to my Air Arms S200 Hunter.

Clear easy to sight in

Crosshairs are a bit thick

Small size and weight plus clear optics. Also very happy that the adjustable front focuses so very close.

The small size gave me a little trouble gettings the rings onto my 1377, but I just switched with some other rings that I already had. Then I decided to move the scope to my Diana 34 and ended up switching back to the rings it had originally came with,LOL! None of this is a real problem, its just the way that I went about it that was the problem.

I am a satisfied customer!

Perfect size and eye relief for the Crossman M177 pellet rifle. Zeroing is a snap. Paralax and focus adjustments are positive and stable. Rail mount is reliable and repeatable.

Nothing

Great value for the price.

Value for the money. Image clarity and the ability to zoom in are great. The quick attachment with Weaver mounts makes installation a breeze. Easily adjustable windage and elevation with ability to set zero mark after everything is sighted in. The flip-up lense covers are a nice bonus.

Nothing

The first of these I received was a mess - the zoom ring would barely turn and then it broke - spinning all the way around without changing the image at all. The mounts were also super tight and difficult to adjust. Pyramyd RMA'd it no problem and the replacement is awesome. Have it mounted on an IZH 60 using an UTG 11mm-to-Weaver Adapter. Some would ask why I would scope an IZH 60 - practice practice practice - and iron sights are getting difficult to see. Great scope. Great service from PA. Would / will buy again when needed.

It is great for shooting an airgun inside the house at short ranges.

The rings have small set screws which get lost quickly.

Its range dial jumps from 25 yards to 50 yards so it is tough to adjust parallax at 30 yards for example.
