how to know my scope is broken or which is wrong?
I put bsa scope 3-14×44 with Ir at 2005 to my HW-97K .177 (tune up with ox spring kit). I also use sportmatch single piece scope mount design for air rifle. I have shoot about 5000 pellets with this combo.
I don’t know which is false?
I can hit a few shoot at 30 yards with less than 0.25inch (3 shoots), but after
that
I hit 1 inch up but still give me less than 0.25 inch group also.
this good group is move un predictable sometimes to the right but sometimes to above after a few shoots.
different result at 15 yards compare to 40 yards
when I got good group at 40 yards (at least one hole group) and then try shoots at 15 yards it will be too right about 1/2 inch from my dot target.
does my scope broke or my scope not alignment with the barrel?
thanks

after you put blue loctite, how long the before the screw loose again?
Never got loose until the next annual oiling… remember to degrease the threads before applying blue loctite. Make sure the degreaser and loctite stay away from critical rifle components (seals, compression chamber, etc).
Good luck!
if ox spring is very hard, I will replace again with my original spring.
but can I got higher velocity with my original spring? if I put a few washers below the spring to give it high pre load?
thanks
I had such a bad time with your specific issue on my RWS 350 that I gave up and reverted to the RWS iron sights. I can light up anything inside 25 yards (my vision limit) with that setup. Never lost zero in 18 months since the change.
I’ve heard some people suggest a “lockup” issue with breakbarrel guns… where the scope is fine but the barrel is pointing at a slightly different place each time its cocked.

yup, this kick hard and I remember when I go to the shooting range, I put my HW-97 at gun holder (Y shaped piece of wood) then I shot, I heard the strange sound like a bed hit by stick.
and after that my scope lost zero for a moment.
I think because the wood that grab my rifle can’t absorb the recoil it return to my rifle and scope??
I put a dab of blue loctite on my stock screws after my annual oiling and sit for 24 hours.

That Ox spring is very violent in the reverse recoil department. Try a tougher scope.
Also recommend to try a different scope?
Same happened to me and the rifle’s stock screws were loose.

rifle stock screws is sometimes loose, but I have tighten it.
scope mount seem very firm because the scope not move.
but will check again today
I recommend to check and or tighten all the screws in the Stock and Scope mount.

I have an RWS mount and scope on my RWS 48 and it’s held up for years. You need scope rings with the pin to keep it from creeping.
