Default Thanks for the help

Back to where I was a week or so ago. Had groups moving around at 100 yards and was advised to try shooting the 100 yard target first as my routine was to shoot 50 yards first. Using a Traditions Lightning inline 50 cal. 2 - 777 - 50 grain pellets – 240 grain STP sabots & black plastic. Took a clean and oiled gun and ran bore cleaner down he barrel and about half a dozen clean wipes and shot 3 caps to season as also advised here. By the way it was quite nice outside when I started sunny and all. Rapped off three shots and had a 2.5” group at six o’clock by 4 inches. Adjusted the scope and got a group at the right elevation but was left at 0900 a few inches. Sky turned gray and the drops started. End of story, can’t wait to try my last left to right scope adjustment, tomorrow hopefully. Thanks again for the help, Phil
