barrywhite 282 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 mine never move ,or a little some times if I bash the gun on something .If you have a new gun and scope it may have to settle down a bit .If you are learning to shoot the problem may be you .there could be a lot of problems are your mounts tight ..not to tight..and your scope is not moving .If your gun is correct and shooting well you have good pellets then something inside your scope could be loose .Your gun could be loose in the stock .There will be more things as a possible problem ..

villaman 9,979 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Is it ok when shooting the gun? Are knocking the gun in any way ? Quote Link to post
ryanod90 17 Posted December 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Shooting is ok but slowly seem to go off zero again and again. Bought new mounts and put them on tight but didn't tighten too much. So the norm is that the gun doesn't go out too much at all. How much of a knock can make the gun go out. Quote Link to post
villaman 9,979 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Doesn't take much on some guns Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I have two Nikko Stirling AirKing 3-9X42 AOs. Had to send one back after my old FAC Cometa .22 shook it to pieces. The zero was jumping out by inches after every shot. The retailer replaced it, since it was under guarantee, although they had to wait for the manufacturer to OK the replacement. I put the replacement on my FAC Stoeger, and couldn't get it to zero. Replaced it with a Hawke Sport HD, and now it zeroes. If everything else is as it should be, then the reticle may have come loose. Is your TX200 running at FAC power? Quote Link to post
j j m 6,481 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 a tiny knock can knock them off zero Quote Link to post
ryanod90 17 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yes she is fac power so you saying she may have shot it loose in the scope ? What sciope would your recommend ,? Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hawke Sport HD 3-9X40. It's in the same sort of budget range as the AirKing. The mildot reticle's a bit blobby, but the glass is sharp, and the reticle seems to stay where it's supposed to. The turrets have a good, positive feel too. It's only been on my FAC Stoeger for a short while, but then the NS AirKing was only on there for a short while before it started wandering around, so I'm reasonably confident that it'll hold zero. I've heard good things about the Sport HD from other FAC springer/rammer shooters, especially Stoeger ATAC owners (the ATAC is a bit of a beast), which is why I got one in the first place.

bugg 84 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Does it have a retaining grub screw on it? Quote Link to post
iana 25 Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I had a Mountmaster on a HW80 @ 20ft and it actually broke the internal crosshairs after a few shots. Quote Link to post
ryanod90 17 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I have been trying to use it today at a few targets and I think the problem is when I look into it and don't move the gun but move my head the cross hairs car be off the target. It's hard to explane but if I have the gun and cross hairs on the target and move my head but not the gun the crosshairs will move from the target from the slight different angle I am looking down the scope at ? Is this normal ? Quote Link to post
ryanod90 17 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Does it have a retaining grub screw on it? Does it have a retaining grub screw on it? Yes it does have a screw on the bottom to keep it from sliding up and down the gun Quote Link to post

Is this normal ?yes this is normal you have to keep your eyes and head in the same position for each shot you won't get a clear image unless you are lined up properly and the right eye relief Quote Link to post
