Abhijeet dont know how to thank you. How useful.
Taking advice of this shimming guide I put 2 films in the back ring of the scope.
The Nikko Stirling 4-12 x 42 AO Gold is shooting perfectly now. I have set it to zero at 20 meters which is a proper field use distance.
My mistake was I was raising the whole level of the scope by shimming both rings.
2 layers of film on the back ring compensates for the barrel droop.
Next project try a new Nikko Stirling on the Diana 36. I am ordering another one right away. And will purchase a .22 Diana 35 tommorrow for trials.

So the sunk money in this Nikko Stirling scope was recovered. It looks cool on the HW 80. A very sturdy Air Rifle scope that can take the magnum power of the HW 80.
Will bring it home from the club on my next visit. The gunner is cleaning the HW 80 for me, so I left it there again.
