it sound like your scope mounts may not be centered/square with the barrel. You might try and flip/rotate your scope mounts and see if it shoots to the other side at 50 yards after being zero at 25 yards.

You may need to get adjustable scope mounts.???

Try removing the barrel – reinstall the barrel snugging the bottom set screws then the side set screws then snugg the bottoms once more- dont over tighten- try to make sure the set screws dont rub on the the barrel bushings. my two cents…and is this with all pellets or what?

i have a level on my rifle at the scope base

the only other think i can think of is that make sure that your gun is not tilted to the side or the scope hairs are lined up properly with the axis of the gun ( ie the guns is level and the scope hairs are also at the same time) i had that problem one time

Hi,
The same thing used to happen to mine after i’d adjusted the tophat below .070 to try and conserve air.The tophat was hitting the valve and for some wierd reason it was throwing the pellet to the left (i’m a lefty)at 50yd.
I adjusted the scope to compensate and found it was going to the right at closer distances.
I increased the distance back between the tophat and valve body and the problem disappeared.
Can’t explain why it did that but it could be the answer to your problem.
Hope it works for you. 😀

i have a leapers 1 peace mount for a 8-32×56

what kind of scope mount? The AF mounts can cause that problem if not tightened evenly from both sides of the base.
