I'm looking at getting a 350 but a lot of the pictures I see of them
makes them look like they have barrel droop. Is this just an illusion or what?
How does a scope work on yours, any droop issues?
Thanks,
Roald.

Not mine

I have a 350 for awhile now and it does not suffer from barrel droop. I have seen that mentioned on the forum here and was prepared for it. But low and behold it does not have the problem. The 350 is powerful and does shoot pretty flat, really reaches out... it behaves very well, not twist or other things that are mentioned around here. If you know the method of shooting any springer the 350 is not a problem, just have to leave the rifle do it's thing with a loose hold... FN

Barrel droop

Barrel droop is in no way a flaw. The 350 is designed that way. To mount a scope it is best to use compensated or adjustable mounts. I use the Beeman 5039 adjustable mounts on mine and they work fine. Good luck!

Thanks guys, so I'd be better off getting an adjustable
mount anyway... okay, I like the Beeman, looks good too.
Thanks,
Roald.

My 350's barrel shoots about 3/4 inch low of where the receiver is poting @ 10 yds - 'droop' of about .002/inch, which to me is tolerable for use with a std. mount. A laser level comparison will give you the best answer for your gun. You may find there is no problem worth addressing.
