Re: Why do shot groups move?
dear prabath my experience is the same.by marking an area with a coloured marker just shoot at it as fast as you can reload;that is my expierence with rimfires air guns behave ina differant way .the wieght acquantance the shape and the way you hold it plus on a day when your breathing is not perfect.try shooting in the morning after a bout of yoga you will get a better group.just take it easy.a change in pellets may effect your group.try crossman premiers. forget the habit of using scopes try peep sights.crossmans are affordable at 100$.other match sights may cost upto 500$.my niece shoots with an anchutz latest model in the junior group it took a little time and training by my cousin a national level skeet&trap shooter.but that anshutz costing about 4000$ without duty only produced results after the girl understood the basics of shooting and training...your airking54 does the same with me;iam still not shooting upto the required mark;now dont tell me the windage factors as i have tried every damn thing inthe book;it still shoots alot lower without the scope which iwill not use on it.i only use scope on my ar6 pcp as it is useful in shooting 100yds with amuzzle pressure of 60ftlbs.the best in an airgun;but still the same problem you cannot get cracking everytime..my extract is that lack of practise does that.

Thanks a lot for all the advice. Will bear in mind all the things you have told me. Breathing control is my biggest and main problem.......thanks to ITC
