Hi there,

 

You could shim your scope or reset the sights to the factory default (optically centre them). Then sight in as normal

 

Heres how its done (my second post on the thread)

you could try putting a shim on the rear scope mount to lift the rear of the scope up a little which will move the cross hairs further down

As above, but did you also shoot your spring in with a tin of pellets to settle it down. No pointing sighting in it until you have.

At least a tin, you should get good groups after a tin though.

Hi, mate.

 

If it's shooting too high, you'll need to shim the front mount, not the rear.

 

Cheers.
