I get it sighted in... few shots seems ok, then it goes haywire. I couldn't hit the invasive Eurasian doves in the trees in my back yard from 15-20 yards on a bench rest. Can't tell for sure if it's just the heavy recoil breaking scopes, or if it's the gun itself that's wildly off, or a combo of both.

      Never been able to get the gun very accurate.

      Any ideas?

        I bought one about 5 years ago and a Rws 34. Ended up giving the Trail to my brother. It was okay, scope never broke but tried 5 different pellets and the crossman pellets worked best. But the grouping was still twice the size as the RWS with various pellets it could shoot well. The RWS was less finicky on pellet preference, more accurate, a much lighter gun , better triger, had fixed sights if desired and nicer to look at(slim,better wood, and metal work) The only downside was rated fps was 200 fps slower, otherwise RWS34 hands down.

          Where you at, OP? I'll bring my .25 Marauder PCP over and we'll waste every last one of those worthless noisy feathered rats.

            If that rifle is anything like the nitro piston, I had the same experience. Not with the scope but the inaccuracy of the rifle. One day it was great, the next it was bad, not just bad but horrible. Tennis ball size groups at 20 yards when it was a quarter prior. Ending up throwing it in the trash when I had enough.

              I have a Benjamin Fortitude PCP in .22 you can buy. Very accurate out to 40-50 yards and gets 60 consistent shots per 3000psi fill.

                I threw my Trail in the burn pit. Mine ate scopes also. I even sent it off to a certified Crossman with high hopes; nope. I bought mine when they first came out, so I paid way too much.

                  I had one that came new out of the box with a bent barrel. Returned it and got another. That one had baseball-sized groups at about 20 yards. I took off the shroud and groups tightened to nickel-sized at 20. I ran a couple hundred pellets like this & got very consistent results -- shroud on, big groups, shroud off, small groups.

                  Returned that rifle, got a Gamo and, several years later, still shoot that Gamo.

                    What happened, OP - did you throw it on the burn pile?

                      He disliked it so much he deleted his original post.

                      OP, if your still working on this, get an airgun rated scope like a Hawke airmax or several Leupold models
