    Hi Dave

    Going to bring my new WH100 KT .22, sadly its got a cheap Centre Point 4 x 32 scope, but zeroed in at club last night

    The POA keeps losing its zero and I cannot figure out why

    Look forward to seeing you again.

    Aha, thats what my similar gun did. I have now removed the o ring from the barrel clamp around the barrel, so the barrel free floats. Might be worth a try most seem to think free floating the barrel is the way to go.

    I have a 3-9 x 50 Nikko scope you can borrow, not ideal, but better than what you have, but of course means another zero session.

    Actually I'll bring my s400 which is in 177 and zero'd with a decent MTC scope, also has a hamster, you are welcome to borrow that.......
