Shot about 6 groups of 5 with the RWS 45 @46 feet. First and best, orange dot, was pretty good but I was surprised at the shift in zero. I had put a couple drops of chamber oil in it about a week ago. I don’t know if this rifle has a leather seal or not, I’ve never had it apart since I have owned it. Mid to late 80s. The groups in between were all over the place although still in the orange after I made a sight change and checked the screws.Then I fired the last round with the flyer. I didn’t think It was me but who knows. The shot cycle seems a little smoother since I shot it last maybe it had to settle down a bit since the lube job? These regular springers can be frustrating at times, my FWB 300 S has pretty much spoiled me I used the same hold I usually use, open hand rested on the bag light shoulder hold. All in all I still like the old girl.
