Yes, the scopes that come with them are not very well made, if you wanna do it right the first time..

Are you trying to shoot it off a bench?

[Dave_S]

Yes I am shooting off bench,scope does what it wants to do,not responding to input as it should,very dis-appointed so far, 150+ rounds fired today was expecting better accuracy for the momney,it was a gift from my wife,need to get this thing lined out or send it back Dave><>

Air rifles like that are not designed to shoot off a bench rest because of the spring action in it. Try shooting it free hand and see if it does any better.

I disagree with you(not picking any bones but just what I think). I shoot of an actual bench rest set up and thats when I get my best groups.. 3 shots in a ragged hole.

That's fine if you disagree.

[Winman]

My RWS 45 or my Winchester 333 will shoot one hole groups from the sandbag rest....I can't hold them as steady when I hold offhand..........

[Skullworks52]

That's fine if you disagree.

But it could also be the way the airgun kicks as to if it likes a benchrest or not.
