.177 Gamo Stutzen, less than 500 rounds cycled thru it.
Tech Force, air gun rated scope, mounted using Beeman one-piece scope mount with internal stop properly secured. set at 12x for 'zeroing'. mount has been "lapped in" for secure fitting into mount.
powerplant securely mounted in stock.
35 yard range at 1" bullseye from sandbagged assisted rest.
shooting 3 per group. (shot 3 groups of 3 rounds per group)
the BEST (read that smallest) group shot was just under 3"! that was with the Crosman pointed premiers. i would not think 35 yards is too far to expect 'good' or even 'excellent' accuracy from a rifle of this quality.
since this is a 'Stutzen' rifle, (a full length stock with a slot for an underlever cocking feature.) it has a forward mounting screw on the barrel itself to secure the forward part of the stock to the barrel/powerplant. would that be a source of problems in getting and keeping a "zero"? i would think it could.
what other issues might be affecting it's accuracy?
never squat down while wearing your spurs...will rogers
