Default Pellet rifle scope for 7mm-08

Just curious... I have a Gamo adult air rifle scope with lighted reticles... I was wondering could this scope be used on a 7mm-08 rifle... I know you cant use a regular rifle scope on a pellet rifle... But was wondering if I could use the pellet rifle scope on a centerfire rifle???

the answer is YES-if it handles the recoil of a pellet gun -it will handle the recoil of a centerfire

The only thing that I can think of that would cause any type of problem is that recoil on a pellet gun is sometimes reverse of that of a center fire rifle. The parallax may only be set to 50 yards on the Gamo scope too.
