thanks alot, i guess i will have to try to invest in a new scope or something, b/c it feels that my eye is directly on the scope, and it spurts back at me after the recoil takes place. Another ? is: do guns comme bore sighted when they are new. I bought mine from bass pro shop annd they told me that most, or all, guns are boresighted in the factory. Is this true? if not i guess ill just take it to dicks and see if they will do it for me. Thanks for the replies
