SCP3-UM312AOIEW
Leaper’s own innovative True Strength Platform truly shows its worth as a durable design which is at the heart of every genuine Leapers scope. Completely sealed and 100% nitrogen filled, the ACCUSHOT series of scopes is shock, fog, and rain proof for maximum reliability when mounted on your firearm or airgun application. Premium lockable and resettable turrets allow for the most consistency and precision capability for maintaining a proper zero. The well received Mil-Dot reticle found in every ACCUSHOT Scope, familiar to many, is complemented by crisp ¼ MOA click adjustments. Standard for SCP3-UM312AOIEW is an integral angled sunshade, quality flip-open lens caps, and quick detachable rings. This 3-12X44 ACCUSHOT is ready to meet your shooting needs right out of the box.

True Strength Platform
The innovative True Strength(TS) Platform is a signature scope construction platform. Most significantly, it includes a Smart Spherical Structure(SSS) controlling the joint-like interaction between a scope’s inner and outer tubes. The design provides long lasting reliability in these interactions to guarantee precise and responsive windage/elevation adjustment over time. TS has been at the heart of every genuine Leapers scope for more than a decade and has been fully tested on scope-killer airguns and elephant rifles with extreme recoil.

Most Demanding Tests
We perform our testing based on actual users' input. We gather usage intelligence from all deployment aspects, carefully analyze their impacts and develop appropriate test parameters to ensure optimal performance under all conditions. TS has been at the heart of every genuine Leapers scope for more than a decade and has been fully tested on scope-killer airguns and elephant rifles with extreme recoil.

Premium Lockable and Resettable Turrets
Well-designed and constructed target turrets allow for crisp, consistent and precise windage and elevation adjustments. Its locking and re-setting features protect and complement one of the most critical parts in the optic for proper zeroing.

Side Wheel Adjustable Turret
SWAT AO, for short of Side Wheel Adjustable Turret, allows this particular scope to achieve an impressive and unparalleled parallax free view from 10 yards to infinity. The side wheel design provides a user-friendly, easy and quick access type of adjustment. Optional Big Wheel of various sizes can be purchased to get even finer adjustment.

Parallax Free View from 10 Yards to Infinity
Uncommon throughout the market, this particular scope series achieves an impressive and unparalleled parallax free view from as close in as 10 yards out to infinity with its SWAT AO.

EZ-TAP Illumination Enhancing Technology
Uncommon throughout the market, this particular scope series comes equipped with the patented Illumination Enhancing(IE) Technology built into the reticle system, providing traditional red/green dual color and 36-color multi mode operation. With this IE technology, you can handle any environment under any weather conditions. Customer testimonials also tell us that the IE technology is a God-sent for color blind shooters to be able to find a color workable to their eye sight. Low profile control console with 2 finger-friendly soft buttons sits on top of the ocular tube for illumination management.

Range Estimating Mil-dot Reticle
Leapers/UTG started introducing mil-dot reticle optics from as early as 2003, pioneering the Range Estimating concept as a useful tool for hunters and shooters around the world. Today, the mil-dot reticle is widely accepted and used in this industry. Leveraging our years of experience in this area, UTG developed and refined the unique Tactical Range Estimating(TRE) mil-dot reticle and offers this feature in almost all of our optics. With some patient learning and practice using our TRE, shooters can enhance accuracy and performance in ways not imagined before. Regular mil-dot reticles found on the market usually have 4 dots in each direction of the cross hair, giving you 9 different aiming points for either windage or elevation. If you count the 2 inner tips of the opposite duplex cross hairs, you get 11 aiming points. In contrast, Leapers/UTG 36 Mil-Dot Tactical Range Estimating Reticle (TRE) has 9 dots on each direction of the cross hair, giving you 19 aiming points or 21 including the inner tips of the duplex cross hairs.

Accessories
UTG aims to provide application and solution oriented products, including useful and most commonly sough-after accessories. In addition to the flip-open lens caps, a pair of medium profile Max Strength heavy duty rings are included. The rings, with a saddle height of 15mm, fit on Picatinny/Weaver rails and are secured with user friendly, quick detach twist locks.

Outstanding Value In a Super Solid Scope!
5 out of 5 stars
Outstanding Value In a Super Solid Scope!
I now have about a half dozen Leapers / UTG scopes, and no less than three of this specific Compact model. They are all rock solid performers at a great price. I have not had a single issue with any of them, after hundreds and hundreds of shots. What I like about this specific model is that it is more compact and as a result slightly lighter and easier-handling than some of the other UTG scopes. (While very solid, that means that these scopes do weigh a bit more than cheaper products.) The other feature that I really, REALLY like about this optic is the Side Wheel Adjustable Turret (SWAT) for parallax / range adjustment. Most of my other scopes have a front adjustable objective (AO), and let me tell you that the side adjustment is FAR more convenient! I will never buy another front adjustable scope again! One final note is that this Compact version of the scope appears to have a wider range of reticle adjustment than the standard (longer) UTG 3-12X44 scope. I mounted one of the longer scopes on an air rifle that was a "barrel drooper", and my first attempt with the standard scope would not zero as far down as I needed. I exchanged it for this Compact scope, and (possibly because the objective lens is closer to the reticle?) was able to adjust to zero with room to spare. You will have a hard time finding a more reliable scope at this price, and this particular model is one of my favorites among the UTG / Leapers stable. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

    I've had several UTG/Leapers scopes over the years and while not top of the line, they have all served me well. In this case I went with the compact figuring it would be the ideal size for my new Notos PCP, I was right.

    To begin with, the included mounts are the perfect height for mounting this scope (with caps) on a flat upper. The eye relief is perfect with the rings straddling the loading port on the Notos.

    Turret clicks are nice and audible but the adjustment feels a bit mushy.That said, it zeroed easily and has not required further adjustment since. Magnification, ocular adjustment, and parallax (side focus) were very stiff out of the box but have loosened up nicely with use.

    I chose this scope over the comparable Bug Buster, expecting a brighter image due to the larger objective. The image is bright and clarity is as expected in this price range.

    Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2019

    My wife and I live on a couple of acres in a small subdivision in SW Florida. Late afternoons we enjoy watching the song birds come to our bird feeder, as well as the doves, squirrels, and rabbits who were attracted to the spillage. Then, out of nowhere one day we became inundated with a huge flock of starlings. Starlings are bullies and slobs and will simply trash the feed, they only like the heart of the melon so to speak. This was our dilemma.

    Solution: The Gamo 6110017154 Varmint Air Rifle .177 Cal break barrel air rifle. Though I am no longer a hunter, I do have latent skills from my days as a Marine combat veteran. I ordered the rifle but was not really satisfied with the scope that came with it.

    I ordered the UTG 3-12X44 30mm Compact Scope, AO, 36-color Mil-dot, Rings and the UTG Leapers MNT-PMTOWL-A Inc, and the Dovetail to Picatinn Adaptor Mount, Black, for mounting the scope, to fit on the Gamo rifle. What a combination. My hit rate went straight up and after dropping 30+ starlings they would immediately fly off the moment they saw me. Then one day as these birds were rousting for the evening I took out my final bird and the word went out. I haven't seen a starling since and that's been over a month ago.

    This UTG 3-12X44 30mm Compact Scope, AO, 36-color Mil-dot is extremely accurate and I have had no problem at all with the scope on the Gamo Varmint break barrel as it handles the double recoil extremely well. I haven't even had to re-sight the scope. I totally recommend this scope on a break barrel air rifle.

    Now, in the late afternoons my wife and I are able to sit outside and watch JUST the song birds. Thank you UTG.

    UPDATE : What has really woken up this UTG scope is the addition of the UTG Add-on Index Wheel for Side Wheel AO Scope, 60mm. What a difference in that the knob for your range adjustment on the scope is very hard to turn. By adding this wheel it has made adjustments for distance a breeze. I highly recommend this addition. Though the starlings hardly ever come by anymore we still have the occasional new ones in the area that don't recognize me right away. The wheel has made adjusting the scope so easy that I am now up to 43 KIA's, most of them from a distance up in the trees. There would be more but very few starlings stop by any more.

    UPDATE 2: Over time the blackbirds do come and go. I've had this scope now for 4 years this month (October 2023) and it has functioned perfectly, still running on my 1st sighting in. I'm buying another one shortly for my AK.

    By the way, I'm now up to 368 blackbirds. Though they rarely come by anymore, in the spring the babies don't recognize me, but they are fast learners.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Early review: Great on an Air Rifle, but Needs Different Mount
    Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this scope to use with a Gamo Whisper Fusion Mach-1 air rifle. I like the fact that this scope offers exposed turrets (they can be twisted by hand without having to remove a cap), and it has an LED-illuminated mil-dot reticle. While there is a color index table that you can use to find the color you like, I prefer sticking to plain, low intensity red when I'm shooting at night.

    Quick note: the product images show the sun visor of the scope, but not the front flip cover. It comes with the flip cover already attached. If you remove it, then you can see/use the sun visor. The rear flip cover is also attached, and flips "up." I found this to be inconvenient because the cover obstructed my ability to press the "EZ Tap" buttons for the LED. Removing the flip cover and then realigning it so that it opens to the right was an easy fix.

    The exposed turrets work as expected and have locking rings: rings at the base of each turret that screw tight to lock the turret in place. I've seen a difference in behavior when these rings are screwed tight: the zero point is different when they are tight. That's fine and even good, but if you make a change to the zero point then remember to retighten the locking rings afterwards The scope includes a "focus" knob for parallax, and has a minimum setting of 10 yards.

    I've read several reviews that say this scope loses its zero after 500+ shots. My hope is that a .177 air rifle doesn't impart the same shock as an 5.56/.223 (it doesn't). So far, this scope has been amazing for 100+ shots: at short range, I can consistently put a 5-round group under a nickel which is good enough for me.

    Now, one thing that needs to be said: while this scope is great on an air rifle, it isn't being marketed for that purpose. The rings that are provided are for 15mm Picatinny/Weaver rails, not the 11mm grooves on an air rifle. The rings simply cannot be tightened down enough to use on an air rifle. That leaves you at the mercy of the mount that is provided with the rifle, or else buying a separate mount. For my specific rifle/scope combination, the UTG 1PC Medium Profile Airgun Mount with Stop Pin, 30mm (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001WJ4Y28) is both essential and perfect.

    This scope has been amazing so far for my purposes of recreational shooting and varmint control with an air rifle. My hope is that the reduced shock of an air rifle will allow the scope to deliver consistent and reliable accuracy.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Top Glas für die Preisklasse
    Reviewed in Germany on April 16, 2016

    Ich war schon erstaunt, als ich das Glas für diesen geradezu lächerlichen Preis gekauft habe und dann die Verpackung sah. Schon diese war hochwertig, mit allem dabei, was man braucht. Das ZF selbst ist wirklich sehr gut verarbeitet. Die Stellringe lassen sich gut bedienen, mit gut rastenden Klicks, fühlbar und hörbar. Wenn die Einstellung passt, dreht man einfach den Sperr-Ring wieder zu und es verstellt sich nichts.
    Die vielen Farben für das beleuchtete Absehen verwirren anfangs, man hat die Qual der Wahl. Es macht sich aber bezahlt, wenn man mal indoor, mal outdoor schießt, noch dazu mit unterschiedlichen Lichtverhältnissen oder Wetterlagen. Für mich hält es in dieser Preisklasse absolut, was es verspricht. Geschossen auf Schmeisser AR15 nach der Justierung auf 100m konstant klares Bild, mehrere Serien mit 5 Schuss in der 10. Es geht auch was in dieser Preisklasse, wenn ich den Kollegen neben mir vergleiche (HK 308 mit Leupold-Glas für 5000€). Da waren die SChussbilder nicht so viel besser. Klare Empfehlung.

    5.0 out of 5 stars OTTIMO RAPPORTO QUALITA' PREZZO
    Reviewed in Italy on February 25, 2019

    Ottimo rapporto qualità prezo. L'ho montato su un ar in 223. buona visibilità e luminosità anche se reticolo forse un po' troppo grosso. Attenzione che per la stima della distanza con mildot bisogna posizionarlo a 10 ingrandimenti e non 12.
    Onesti anche gli anelli (a profilo basso percui o come faccio io si arma l'ar solo lateralmente o se si volesse impugnare con 2 dita la leva di armamento bisognerebbe comprare altri anelli). Nel complesso fa quello che serve ed è discretamente robusto. Certo non è il top di gamma ma nemmeno il prezzo lo è!!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fait solide. Optique correcte. Attaches fournies.

    Sur ce modèle, les attaches sont fournies.
    Le grossissement de 3 à 12 est efficace mais il faut bien entendu à chaque fois régler la parallaxe.
    Les couleurs de l'affichage sont gadgets, le vert étant le plus utilisé... si toutefois on en a besoin. C'est utile sur des zones sombres pour détacher le réticule.
    Je me demande si la mire est par contre bien fixe, car même calée, j'arrive à avoir des décalages de 5 cm à 100 m alors que l'arme ne peut pas bouger. A confirmer aux beaux jours.
    Le seul vrai point négatif pour l'instant est pour le réglage de la dioptrie. Je suis obligé de dévisser au maximum mais il manque encore un quart de tour pour que j'obtienne une vision bien nette. J'ai pourtant une myopie très faible...
    Ici les attaches sont livrées.
    Je recommande pour le rapport qualité/prix.
