Title: Issues with shots after teardown/rebuild (previously zeroed scope)
Post by: Jplee3 on May 09, 2023, 07:36:11 PM
Hey all,

I'm running into a weird scenario where, after tearing down, lubing and rebuilding my 1322 I'm finding my shots falling super low and I'm shooting at a target that's maybe no more than 10 yards away. My scope was zeroed in pretty tight prior to doing the maintenance so figured it should stay that way after reinstalling. What's more concerning is that I've probably adjusted the elevation 50+ clicks (counter clockwise) to compensate but it's still shooting low! It *seems* like there's decent power behind the shots as I've heard a few ricochet off the dirt and hit the fence so I'm not quite sure what the issue is here. Any ideas on what would be causing this?

 Good chance the transfer port is upside down or misaligned.

Yea, I think something is off with the way I installed the boss buddy. Not sure if I installed it right and/or if the seal has degraded. Do you guys find that you have to replace your transfer ports regularly? After the initial teardown, the viton seal was compressed quite a bit - I've installed the original transfer port for the time being.

Forgot to mention but after installing the original transfer port my shots stopped falling :) I'm thinking maybe the boss buddy wasn't fully lined up or there were gaps where the seal wasn't lined up with the valve and or barrel ports.
