FX FX STX Liner Direction

[chaxtell]

Saw this really interesting video that was posted recently and was wondering if any airgunners out there have tried this method and have results of their own to share with the collective group. I will be testing it out as mine original liner was facing 6 o'clock so next time I got the range I am going to compare it to the 12 o'clock position.

Here's another good video on the topic from @mubhaur

when I got my m4 I did 12- 3--6- 9 not 1/8 turns like the video found the highest parallel plane and it's been good since spot on.
i think turning in 1/8th turns like the video makes it more confusing than it really is that's my opinion.

Well, I haven't had a huge issue going from 25 to 125 yards but....I'm going to create an issue just because I can. It makes perfect sense to have the barrel as close to 12 o'clock as possible. I'll play with my .22 Maverick 500 first. Perfect is always good.

Well looks like i'd already done that a few years back, I'd completely forgotten about it, explains why I never have to change my windage.
