Could be all marketing but I bought it..

Yes, but watch the parallax. The scopes you mention are often parallaxed for 50-75 yds., where-as rifle scopes, of the fixed power persuasion, are often parallaxed for 150yds. If you want good, and cheap to boot, try the scopes the spring gun guys use. Those pellet guns are the worst for wear on scopes, that suffer mightily from their recoil impulses, far beyond what these gas guns of ours produce, and they make some of them with adjustable parallax knobs. I have a buddy that bought a Leapers Tactical, which is designed primarily for spring guns, with Mill Dots, adjustable parallax and all the bells and whistles, he swears by it and I think he only paid about $60 bucks..t
