Default RE: Sighting in the Nikon Omega


This Genesis is a very good shooting rifle. For the price of the rifle and the price of the scope, that to me is a heck of a rifle for what is invested. This rifle shoots about as good as my Black Diamond XR. And I never thought I would see a rifle that could do that.

Also, I shot all afternoon. Other Genesis owners have complained about the cam sticking, or the cam not closing. I have no idea why I am so lucky. Other then wiping off the face and bottom of the cam from time to time, as swabbing the bore, I do very little to make this rifle shoot all afternoon.

When I cleaned it, I ran a patch with Windex (Generic brand)through the bore first. Then a dry patch. Then a Montana X-treme Cowboy Solvent patch and that came out clean. So why this thing is not holding fouling with Pyrodex RS is beyond me. I ran one more dry patch after the cowboy solvent, and then gave it another treatment of bore conditioner.
