6" grouping!!! help

[ngbacon 0]

i can usually shoot a good 1" group fine and when i zeroed the rifle (aas400) two days ago it was fine. i took it to my mates yesterday and shot 6pigeons and a squirrel. then we went to look for some rabbits when we found them i took a shot at about 30 yrds and missed completely. so when i got back i had a go at punching some paper and oh my god some of the shots completely missed the target. i have tried removing the moderator no different and ive tried re fitting the sight still no difference, tried cleaning the barrel, the only thing i havent tried is changing the pellets i was shooting some bisley wasps no.3.

any help is great chrs everyone

were you using the wasps when you got good groupings????

 

is the barrel band tight?

 

is the barrel its self tight into the breach end..?

 

is the scope nakard try it on another gun if poss.

 

just a few bits to get you on your way to find the prob..

ps aa pellets tend to work very well in aa guns.

I'd go with something being loose, barrel band, stock screws, scope mounts or similar.

 

Go over the rifle and check all your screws are tightened properly, and that nothing that shouldn't move does.
