As for the breech plug, it is brand new.

If I end up determining it is a scope issue what is a decent made scope that won't break the bank. Probably a $200.00 or less budget since I just bought a new crossbow. I would like to stay closer to $150.00.
IMO I'd dump the T7 and start shooting BH209. Charges of 100 to 110grs volume of BH209 in Encore platform rifles is the sweet spot. It'll shoot your Barnes bullets excellent, cleans up with just Hoppe's, no swabbing between shots and your breech plug is already capable.
