    Crossover is where the scope is not in line with the barrel.
    The result can be mild or severe.
    Basically at near targets the pelletes strikes one side of the centreline, and far targets it will strike the other.

    Not quite sure why I have developed this as a couple of weeks ago I thought it was spot on!!!

    Could be scope shift, as the HW77k has a bit of a kick.....

    Any thoughts on what I can screw down through the scope mount into the hole in the top tube of the HW? The holes are there but I don't have any bolts.....

    i just put my wtc 3.5-10x40 on my 77k and screwed the horizontal adjustment nearly right the way in(to the left),i thought maybe if i screwed the front mounts top strap right side bolts all the way in and left a large gap on the left ..that might help to compensate?

    or is that just 1 silly idea?

    Take off the mounts and turn them through 180° so that you clamp them to the rifle from the other side and try again.

    Don't worry about elevation, this can sorted later with packers.

    Failing that you might need to consider either different mounts / machined mounts to suit your problem (SCR or Keef on here spring to mind) or finally a set of adjustable mounts.
    I play a Fender bass, I shoot a springer. I like things to be, well, dependable
