       S510 fac

       Took my air arms s510 fac out the other day to zero it so I am
       ready to clear some feral pigeons out of cow sheds . I checked
       the zero to find it was out quite a bit , so I zeroed it at 30
       yards which was all good . I refilled to have a bit of fun
       plinking and found my next group of shots was way of zero . Now
       I can't get the rifle to keep its zero at all . Think it was
       fine when I put it away before the winter.  Think the scope is
       ok as it's only a year old .
       Anyone any ideas ?

       John, I have the same rifle and had the same
       Problem as yours today. I was shooting earlier
       and all of a sudden it started firing apx 2 inch
       of zero. I blamed it on a knock to the scope.
       Have u a silencer on the rifle? If so it could be the
       pellet clipping it.

       Gave it a good clean today and zeroed it at 15 yard just to try
       it out , put 50 shots through it and 3 fills and it kept its
       zero fine . I'll take it back out next week and try zeroing it
       at around 35 yards and see how things go . I don't have a
       silencer on it so that's out . Next week will tell a tail when I
       try to get it sorted at the longer distance .
       But as I said after cleaning at 15 yards 10 shot groups were the
       size of a 5 pence piece .
       I'm a bit happier ! Hope that's it sorted !!!
       Thanks for the reply Snap !! I'll let you know how things work
       out next week .
       John
