Lol i guess it not like i could not send you one showing how good it is ., Right? It's not like you were there first hand in person when it was shot. ..

Yikes Ron, that does not look right.
Perhaps a tutorial on how to properly bend a barrel? I know, easier said by me than done by you.

I also bought a HW 77 from Krail. The rear sight needs to be adjusted all the way to the right to zero. I sent it back, big mistake. It took nine days to get it back there and then it spent three weeks on Krail’s receiving dock before they even processed it. They looked at it, shot it, said there was nothing wrong with it and sent it back. That was yesterday I haven’t gotten it back yet. I’m not upset to get the same rifle back because it was a fine shooter. Three-quarter inch groups all day long 50 yards with a scope. However I bought this rifle to shoot Irons. My contention is if the sights don’t line up with the Bore axis, the rifle will only attain true zero at one distance. I tried to explain that to Krail but they didn’t understand. Can’t wait to get it back, it was a fine shooter. I will look at all the solutions on this thread to try to make it right myself.

Well I am much to impatient to keep shooting hoping the gun would break-in LOL. I cleaned the barrel this morning again and no change in POI so:
I bent the barrel for droop and drift. (Thumper is right, that loooong barrel is easy to adjust ;-)
I centered the scope and took 5 shoots with H&N FTT's
That is a dime size bullseye at 17 yards
I think the crisis is over LOL!
Cheers

It appears that all the WyeRocks need some form of tweaking to get them shooting out of the box. I just need to realize that and expect it. Considering how well machined and accurate these guns are, I think they are a heck of a value. So a little bit of futzing around is well worth the time.

Sorry to hear about your plight. If you can zero the rifle at 50 yds it's not terribly off. It's easily adjusted for that little amount. It'll be trickier to not over adjust it, than getting it to move the small amount necessary.
The 35 pictured earlier was almost 6" left at ten yards. That would be almost 30" left at 50 yds. You couldn't hit a std 2' square target backing board if you aimed at the right edge of it. It wasn't even on paper at ten yards.
Anyway you'll need a windless day and at least two targets to check it's lateral zero at a near and far target. The real trick is getting a windless day at a place you have enough room to shoot and the facilities to tweak the barrel.
Good luck to you

Thanks Mycapt65
What is the best method of applying force to tweak a barrel? I have a Walther Parus with the same issue I’m willing to practice on

Depends on the gun and the direction it has to go. I'm not familiar with the Parus so I'm hesitant to make a suggestion

There ya go. Easy enough right? Glad ya got it fixed up. Who knows if the gun took a knock in shipping or what.
