called MM and talked at length with him. Afterward, I tightened the pivot bolt until the barrel wouldn't fall on it's own weight. I then experimented with different rest positions and even shot off my sticks. Surprisingly the sticks were the cat's meow. It shot well over the Caldwell Tackdriver but it shot GREAT off the sticks. It likes to be rested just forward of the trigger guard balanced with the muzzle a tad heavy. Seems strange that a lower powered springer would be this hold sensitive. Man, these girls know exactly how they like to be held! I tried all my pellet stash again and it still likes the cheap Daisy wad cutters. I'm NOT complaining. I was shooting at 18 yards and the group measured about .650". I believe it will get better as she's only got now about 400 pellets thru her. I'm waiting on Pyramid for some JSBs and hopefully they will group out to 25 yards. Not much sense in shooting this little rifle much further than that.
Thanks for all ya'lls input guys.... thanks much. I feel better..... even GOOD!

I got the JSBs in and sighted in at 15 yards. This group is at 20 yards. Maybe if I would have shot more it would have tightened up a bit. I'm happy, happy, happy. This is a sweet little rifle. Thanks, MM.

FLoyd, I'd sure be happy with that group, myself!
