OK,Tuesday I was shootin my 48 and it was doin' pretty good (for me),then yesterday it was shooting to the right about 1 1/2'' - 2'',that dont seem right.
I did'nt bump it or anything,it just started shootin way to the right.
It's CenterPoint 3-9 x 32 22Rimfire,I even called them before I purchased it and they said it would'nt be damaged by the airgun.I mounted it using the rings that came in the package.Each mount has only 2 screws (one per side),would 4 make a difference.
Airgundepot has a CenterPoint 3-9 x 50 with a one piece mount and a walking stick for $85,thought of gettin that one.
Or what other scopes and mounts would work good in that price range,may up to $125? |

I think that you should've gotten a scope with a fixed zoom.
Anyway, you might want to check if your scope went walking. Count the amount of grooves on your scoperail, and then shoot a couple of times.
I've had this with a scope on my Airmagnum, which is recoilless (hole in hole at 25 meters, I tell ya!) but suddenly the point of impact went of the target to who knows where. Turned out it were the scope mounts.
Best rings in my humble opinion are the sportsmatch (sport smatch? ) that have a rolled up piece of sheet metal for a stoppin which is pretty darn strong.
If all of the above don't work:
Check your triggerfinger. |

| Well,when I got home yesterday(after I pack some for my camping trip today) I shot it some more.It seemed not to shot so good,so out of curiosity I check the screws on the mount and the front dovetail was very loose,if it was'nt for the scope it would've fell off.Need to lock-tite them,but that could've been the problem.Sited it in again and seem much better. |

| Loosen the rings (both) around the scope and wiggle the tube around a bit and then tighten again- you may be twisting the tube if one mount was on, the other off. |
