Well guys, I broke down and got a neat little 1.5 - 4.75x scope for the $50 Knight. Took it too the range today and sighted it in.
I took Dave's advice and got some 250 gr SWs. I didn't have any pellets so instead of 2 pellets, I stoked it with 80 gr of RS.
The first shot was on paper at 25 yds so I shot 2 more. Made some sight adjustment and move the target out to 50 yds. I shot 3 shots with the 250 gr SWs and 3 with the 300 gr SWs. The 300s had a slight edge with a smaller group.
I put a 5" 'Dirty Bird' target up at 100 yds and shot 3 shot with the 300 gr SWs. When I went up to check the target they were right on the bottom edge of the paper (about 3" low and 1" left)
I adjusted the scope and shot 3 more this time with 90 gr of RS. Much to my delight, those 3 shots grouped just under 1" about 1" high.
Know anyone who wants to buy a Genesis?
Oh yeah, almost forgot, I took the 54 cal Renegade out and shot PRBs out of it with 80 gr of FFg. Didn't need to play with it too much. At 25 yds it was cutting the bottom of the 2" black dot. And at 50 yds with 4 more shots had the 2" dot almost obliterated. 6 shots and not one out of the 2" dot. I'd call that good enough.
