shim the rear base.

Your scope should be "in the ball-park" out of the box. This ball park will of course be determined by the height of scope rings you put on your rifle. The taller the scope rings/bases the lower your initial shot... Go to a range or safe outdoor shooting area. Put a large target up at 100 yards, 16"x6" will usually do. Aim at the bulls eye, and click off a round. Use a spotting scope, binoc's or your scope to see where your shot has hit. If it is off the paper and no where to be seen, click off a shot one foot high, check paper, repeat one foot low, one left, one right until you find your shot on paper. Once you find your shot, you will need to adjust the windage (left to right) or elevation (up to down) by using the turrets on the scope. Part of the trick in sighting in your scope is to remember if your shot is high, then you need to crank the turrets in the "up" postion (if it shoots left, turn turrets to the left, and so on). This part is sort of counterintuitive, and may feel foreign. Once you get your scope on paper, continue to adjust until you are hitting consistently 1 inch above bulls at 100 yards. Shooters benches and rifle rests help in this process, but it can also be achieved without. I hope this helps. D

have you checked online by chance ???

Yes thats about all there is to it, adjust in small steps and tap on the barrel of the scope with a screw driver handle (light taps) after each adjustment before firing the gun.

look on ebay

well if the bullet hit is jumping about its all down to your scope,,,it could be that its just "lose on its mount!" or its died on you,,like the cross hair is bouncing about inside the scope so with the recoial it jumps into a new place with every shot fired there by giving you a new point of impact,,,
this can happen if the scope was wound right up or down or left or right and strain was put on the adjusters,,,you may need to buy a new scope,,,,a good "air rifle!" scope will work quite well on most full bore rifles,,,yer right i here you say!!! ok,,iv got air rifle scope's on my .303 + 7.62 + 22-250 + .357 under leaver marlin cowboy, all 3 of my .22 rim fire's and they have been on these rifles for years now,,,1000,000, of rounds fired so far, with no problems! and no drifting so far,,,
an air rifle scope is very strong you know,,,but they only cost £150,00p or less for a good one?????
ps,,,,dont buy a tesco scope there cra*y
