Ive been out of shooting air rifles for a while, i cant work out my sights,
ive set my sights at my hunting range of 25yard, i can hit a 1in dot every shot,
yet at only 10 yard it hit 1in low, i have to aim 1 mil dot over at close range, i would have thought it would be the other way round,
my air rifle is shooting at 11lb, cheers jeff

The bullet is is following a curved trajectory in relation to your straight line of sight.

At the ten yard point it is on its way up and at the 25 yd point it is on its way down.

You will likely have to sight the gun in for 30-33 yds to be on target at 10yd
