This is my first PCP and so I am not sure what to expect. The barrel seems to deflect quite easily- that is, it is quite flexible. In just setting the gun down carefully or getting it in and out of it's case I notice some flexing of the barrel. It seems that this could change the point of impact from session to session. Does this explain why I am experiencing what seems to be significant variability in point of impact from day to day?
Once I get the scope zero'd in, I can make near single-hole groups at 50y and < 1" groups at 75y- but when I begin a session I really don't know where the point of impact will be. I find myself zeroing the scope repeatedly. My expectation was that once the scope was zero'd that would be that unless I was compensating for wind or distance.
Were my expectations too high? Is this something typical of FX guns? The barrel appeared to be braced much better than that of the Crown which was part of my decision to go with the Wildcat.
Experienced thoughts would be appreciated!
