New leupold scope

Just a thought to consider. I don't know what type of air gun you have but most have a double recoil which can damage or destroy a conventional scope. I'm unsure if Lepold makes a scope for air rifles- be sure you are using the correct scope!

Your scope is always going to be more comfortable closer to your rifle. A lower profile and smaller degree of adjustment are what you want. if possible zoom out as far as possible to zero in your rifle at twenty five yards, and if you still have trouble try to zero at fifty yards. your optic was meant to work much farther out than twenty five yards so if you're not used to those ranges bring a card table and chair until you get confortable shooting that far out.
