Shotgun Question
I have recently acquired an old pump shotgun which has set in a closet for many years. The shotgun shoots a little high and to the left. It patterns well, works well, and seems to be in good condition.
The barrel does not look bent, and a micrometer reading around the muzzle shows consistency.
Anyone have any suggestions to what could be causing it to shoot high and left??

RE: Shotgun Question
The barrel may have to be bent to bring it into line. There are shotgun smiths who can do this, but it takes a real shotgun expert!
Keep yore powder dry!!

RE: Shotgun Question
Thanks for the replys
This is an old Mossberg (revelation) model 310. It has no serial number, so I guess this gives it a little age. My first suspect was cant, as I have neck problems,so I put it on my sinclair rest with the same results, high and left.
