sighting in optima pro   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1652 of 2337 |
Hello everyone,
Am a new member. Can anyone tell me the best
combination for accuracy for a c.v.a Optima pro. I have a decent set
of rings on it with a Bushnell Banner dawn to dusk scope. I am using
225g hollow points made by powerbelt. I seem to have problem with
consistency at 50 yrds. All the pellets land in a 6" circle but no
real consistency. The rings are tight and i am using a rest. I know
this rifle is capable of much more. Would appreciate any feed back.

thank you

robert doyle
