Your rings are too high and/or your arms are too long. Shorter rings and surgery and you'll be on target in no time. Make sure the surgeon leaves the elbows and wrists in place.Comment

Make sure you put your eye right up to the rubber ring on the scope."I'll kill a man in a fair fight. Or if I think he's going to start a fair fight. Or if he bothers me. Or if there's a woman. Or if I'm getting paid. Mostly if I'm getting paid."

From the pic, are you're trying to use a rifle scope on a pistol (based on power level)?
Rifle scopes have short eye relief, so they don't work well w/ semi auto pistol (I do know people who do it, but they only use it for very special purposes).
For general use, ou want a pistol scope. I happen to be selling mine, which is considered a lower/mid-range general purpose scope.

If you put the scope backwards, it may help.

Well, I posted and offered some advise just in case he was serious.
A lot of pistols are capable of really accurate shooting ... only problem is the open sights plus short sight radius. For example, I can get 2" groups at 100 yards w/ the .22LR indoors anytime off just sandbags for pretty much any number of shoots... (I think I remember). I used to love going to the range playing around w/ .22LR rifle shooters with a pistol. Many were surprised how easy it is to shoot a pistol so accurately out so far.Comment

Move the scope back in the rings until eye relief is set at your shooting stance
