tightened stock, deburred plastic, rubbed linseed oil into stock, trigger pull heavy, flushed inner workings being carefull to keep latch up dry, mounted 4-12 bushnell banner on redhead blackpowder rings from bass pro. swabbed bore well, checked sighting at 40 yards, 1/4" high and right, tried a shot at 100yds, 1.8"high, 1/4 inch left, I never touched the scope settings from factory.. now to get out and group it looks to me that she will definately be a good one.. these shots were taken over the corner of my pickup bed so definately not the best rest. yotes beware!!!
