I have an opinion that more-sophisticated airgunning equipment tends to often be more tempera'mental'. So today, with the return of warm weather and anxious to reunite with unsophisticated old loves, I took a few Co2 guns out of the mothballs. Too often neglected, I decided to first shoot some groups with my .22 MRodAir Plinkster equipped with a vintage, 7/8" tube Weaver 3-6X scope. From the very first shot it was obvious 'The Rig That Never Suffers POI Shifts' HAD... like FEET, not millimeters or inches!
Think I might have located the issue, but thought I'd seek second opinions from airgun experts. So do y'all think a broken in half turret saddle and busted-OFF elevation turret might have anything to do with the POI shift? And do you think (maybe) the plastic used in the 1960s might not be quite as durable as today's composites? Thanks in advance for your help.
