Gamo Arrow Scoped Accuracy Issues

[Mr Mish]

Hi Guys Just ordered a Gamo Arrow.
I’m having issues with it.

Good accuracy open sights, (minute of squired at 20 m ) I’ve since added a decent Nikon scope and Warne rings and having massive issues with accuracy. Scope is fully adjusted windage and elevation and rifle shooting low and left at 20 or so feet.
Tried different ammo same issues.
I feel like the barrel and dovetail mount surface are not parallel.

Its not the scope as i took it off my deer rifle.

Any ideas?

Maybe a thing like a springer that can have droop ?

This test gun shot low with a scope.

Today I mount a scope on the Gamo Arrow and we take a first look at accuracy.

If you just bought it from like pym-air. Dont goof around on the tra time if you feel you want to exchange it and hope the next ones stright. .. i just dont see any other reports that has that to offer a resolve.

Send it back and get an Urban!

Did more looking reading and vidios and generaly all seem happy .

Tough to say being the irons work and the scope is low without a backup scope and rings to see of it gets right or same issue.. could you give pictures of your scope mounted ? Maybe we can see somthing or not.. also your rear sight where it's ajusted to. ( Like is the blade / elevation real high or the windage way right ,ect. Or is it close to center ..

Depends on how you want to use it I've tried probably 10 scopes on my ruger now....got 1 on it waiting to try...if I don't like it; I'm just going to switch it to irons for good or maybe a red dot...

well,
if the irons are hitting,
id look at the rings or the way you mounted it.

try a different set of rings,
or take the scope off and remount.

id attach the rings to the gun first,
then lay the scope in the rings to see if it lays properly in them.

pictures may help us help you.

if it was mine id tear it down completely and reassemble to see if that helps.

Update on the shooting issues.
I gave the barrel a good clean and remounted the scope and rings and re zeroes the scope in the mirror.
Getting decent groups now. Thank you for all for the info.

Any recommendations on a short to medium range .22 pellet for squirrels?

cheers

??? I just got the gamo whisper fusion mach1 .22 break barrel and just use cphp in it..

I had a Arrow.177 and it was junk. I tried all the usual to get it to group but it continued to shoot all over. Then one day I got fed up and in the trash it went.

Omg same issue .. was fine until I swapped scopes and now i cant get it to not shoot low and to the left. Tried another scope, different rings and no change.

Got the 22 for my middle son, shooting Crosman hp very good out to 40 yds. My pcp is broken so I took his out squirrel hunting n it dose pretty good at 40 yds n under. But it shoot n sound like a springer, it pretty loud n have a little kick compared to my n my other son Hatsan flash. Anyway I had to cut a piece of plastic to rise the back of the scope to get it to shoot good because it shooting to high n I ran out of adjustment to lower the crosshairs.

My guess would be the scope rail not being straight with the bore. We had the same issue with a couple Avengers.
