Breaking in the 125 Sniper

[Ray]

First of all,Right now all I want to do is gets some lead down the barrel to break the 125 in.I thought I

could get at least 1 tin down her but, I'm lucky I got maybe 80 to 100 shots off.It's a real workout.The gun

is quiet.Whats loud is the noise of the spring in your ear when it fires and the sound of the pellet hitting

home.The scope,well, I've had allot of cheapees but,they were all useable.This blurs out at higher

powers.Don't know if its just mine or if there all like that.Love the adjustable cheek rest, its real

handy.This is all just break-in shootin nothing fancy.I try to adjust the trigger every which way but I can't

get a decent pull weight.It's a hard pull.I got the rifle to do a decent quarter size groups at 25 yards.With

JSB Match Diabolo Exact Jumbo Heavys .22 Cal, 18.13 Grains,The rifle smoked up until about 50 rounds then the

smoke cleared from the barrel.As its stands now its a great hunter but, no sniper.That will come when I

install my Lepers scope and one piece mount and get a decent pull weight on the trigger.

cool report. Thank you. They sure are a bugger to cock, eh?  I was done after 4 hours of it. What a great gun though.

Yeah the hard trigger pull was causing me some issues with good shot groups. However,since I tuned it in,it is much better. My scope was also blurry at the higher setting. Now I have the Eotech on,and it's fine at my shooting distances of 30 yds or less.

Thanks guys,Yeah its a work out.I'm sure the groups will tighten up.I have the 2 new longer trigger screws.Just have to find the post on how to install and adjust them.If they work the groupings will shrink.
