Had a call back from Fitco they said that scopes are generally not designed for magnum springers however if it fails they will replace it once. As the Patriot does 920 fps in .22, I am pretty sure non PAL springers are safe with these centre fire scopes.

LOL, I see it !
I actually shipped off my broke up scope this afternoon. I made sure that I called John Xing first and explained what was wrong with it. He was very nice about it. (even tho I called very early, forgot bout the 3 hour time differance, oops) Gave me a return # and told me to send it back along with a $10 money order for the return shipping.
HTH, Steeb.

No problems with Fitco scopes so far.

Bought 2 of the Fitco 6x24x44 illuminated scopes back in Feb and got them on my Echo 521's, probably a thousand pellets or more through at least one of the guns and not a problem with the scope, if that isn't going to kick the snot out of them, I don't know what will.
