I have tried to get this little rifle to shoot and group for over two years. Part of it was my sight (astigmatism) and a poor sight picture but I solved that problem. I can shoot it at 25 yards and get a 1 1/2 inch group good enough for squirrel head (20 gr 3f goex .310 round ball and .009n Pillow ticking patch) but when I move to the 50 yd target I cannot keep five shots on a 8 1/2 x 11 paper with a 3 inch stick on target. I am shooting from a rifle rest and have the same steady sight picture ( the same picture as the one used for 25 yd target). My patches are new and well lubricated with bear fat. The rifling is bright and shiny and I swab every 5 shots. Do you have any sugestions?
