Seems like I have to change my zero constantly with my Maverick. The gun rides next to me in my side by side daily with the buttstock on the floor and rifle leaning on the seat. I was wondering if a barrel tensioning kit would cure my problem? Thanks

Yes I’m averaging 915fps with 18 gr. JSB. I usually check my zero first thing in morning sometimes I make adjustments sometimes not. The gun gets used pretty hard riding around on the farm in the side by side i was hoping the tension kit would help stiffen the barrel since it is half leaning on it

A tensioning sleeve MAY...help...
BUT...so would NOT leaning the gun on the barrel in your vehicle ! Buy, build a proper gun mount and attach it to the roll cage. Simple.

You really can't manhandle an FX like you would a normal rifle. They're great shooters but the second you put pressure on that barrel, you need to rezero. Thats the downside of being able to remove a barrel in 30 seconds.
If I take my Dreamline out for hunting or pest control I immediately zero my gun when I get there. I carry a sleeve of one inch stickers in my truck for basically that exact purpose. It's never out a whole lot but an inch at 50yds is enough to be problematic when trying to pop a squirrel or rabbit in the dome.
