Springers are harsh on scopes period. The Sport is kinder than most and similar to a heavier HW 80 or 77. Either a scope is built well enough to cope with a spring rifle's cycle of recoil and vibrations (harmonics) or isn't. Two identical scopes might cope or not. The simpler the scope the better the survival rate. Many modern scopes built to a price hate springers though are fine on the pussycat pcp's. Its why collectors favour period stuff shown to survive.
