Haven't been able to do any shooting for several weeks, but today i didn't care about the thick fog and low temp, grabed my Hw35 and went to the cabin for some triggertime, needed to sight in the new hawke vantage scope, sat the target at 25 meters, and opened a new tin of Jsb 8.44, first 3 pellets went outside the target, didn't know where they went, but aimed about 10 inch low and hit high and to the right, shot 3 more to confirm and i got a clowerleaf hole, adjusted twenty klicks low and shot a couple moore, then 20 more klicks, on the target now but still to high, and are thinking that i don't have enough klicks left on the scope, turned another 20 klicks and now im spot on but to the right, but adjusted 20 to the left and bingo! Bullseye, but it got so foggy that i could not see the target! So i gave up for the day, probably need to shim the scope cause it can't be good for it beeing almost maxed out on the adjustement
