Well I sorted out the zero and was shooting alright groups. Not sure if the x1 magnification is enough but I think I will only be shooting closer rabbits.

I had to file down the adapter rail to allow for the pin of the red dot scope to seat properly but as I said its shooting pretty straight now which Im super happy about.

I dunno it was like it when I brought it from youngs. Came with the steel breech.Ive sorted it by drilling the hole in the rail so it sits flush.

It shouldn't stick out. Has it been replaced by a longer one?
Might be an m3 grubscrew, maybe 4mm long. Mitre 10 sell them, but if you have a faster store nearby, it'll be cheaper. Or pm me and I can send a couple.

If so, just take it out and either file it shorter, or replace with a shorter one.



Yeah the one at the front of the steel breech , I've kinda sorted it now. Drilled a hole for it to fit into.
Thanks

Thanks again for the bolt kruzaroad.
It was shooting accurately but not where I wanted it too.
I'm wondering if its mounted on the piss about.

Sweet once you got ya scope zeroed you'll be even more pleased with it.
Those open sights lean to placement not pin point accuracy, and with my getting old eyes are a nightmare, but I still like em.

How far away is that target ?
If it's 10m you need to keep pellet testing.
The gun is capable of way more consistent accuracy.
Its a lethal gun.
I really like them.
I was using hades and air arms. It didn't mind stoeger x field.
Ftt, went alright but for some reason stopped liking them
