Glad to see all is fixed Chad – yes this and any hobby can be a PITA. My SCUBA hobby costs me a small vehicle at times but I still love doing it.

It takes a lot to detail what you think and I believe you stated it quite eloquently and made it an easy read for a new shooter.

I shoot my springer very well out to about 46 yards, but it takes effort and practice and it is also a lot of work compared to a PCP. I think it helps to make me a better shooter…Read more

I pull the trigger and hold the cocking mechanism to release the firing pin in a controlled manner with a full mag.. then remove the mag.. and send the shot to my trap.. so no double loading. I do the same with an empty mag to see the normal advance but leave it in. Safety first.

How does the barrel look if you roll it on a glass tabletop – mucho out of spec or slightly out or perfect?

Just a thought..

If you could give it a try with an empty mag and let me know how it indexes then. Just curious about this.

Cheers,

You might also want to check your pellets – JSB’s are good – that’s my preferred projectile for my ag’s but Crossmans are what I plink and they are a dirty lot. I have to reset everything after shooting with those. But usually at 50yds I can hit what it points at .25 or .22 and with good accuracy. Also what is your zero 15, 25, 100?

Yes my reading was low for the reg height – I rechecked and it was 53.88mm – actually checked it a few times over different parts of the body then just used the tip top – mine has a point and read the 53.88mm.

I have a .25 and the first few shots did move it up a bit, I place my finger on it to check movement after the first install. After a few shots it will settle down and not move – I guess the blue tape is starting to catch it .

I have the .25 syn Marauder as well and both are very accurate with plenty of power at your range – the difference will be the shot count as well as the consistency going to the Bug as the favorite.
