That Was A Close One!

[Max Yells-James 34]

Was out shooting at the top of the barn tonight and as i was getting down the stairs i tripped and fell to the bottom, i cracked the back of my head open and bent the barrel slightly on my BSA Scorpion SE, i thought! Well got back inside and bent the barrel back into place with my hand and found after i re-sighted the scope it was still blisteringly accurate! Same hole groups at 25 yards! just worried now that, yeh it might be fine at 25 yards but if the barrels not dead straight then it will be going off to the left at further ranges but as far as the eye can tell its straight.

i'm fine now mate, thanks. More worried about the gun. It's a fully free floating barrel so wasn't that hard.

How's it shooting at longer ranges?

I'm fine now thanks got a big bruise though! Thanks for asking . I tried it today and i could hit pebbles at 57 yards and at 25 it was pellet on pellet. God was definitely watching over me last night.

^{Hope the gun is ok and is there much damage to the stairs ?}

Thanks for the nice comments! I was very, very lucky the gun wasn't damaged more . And no there was no damage to the stairs but the blank that tripped me up in the first place was cut up into small pieces out of anger. Lol
