Took my Mosin to the range today with my first cast loads for that gun. Accurate 200gr GC bore rider. The first three shots grouped high & to the left at 25 yds. A million clicks later to the right & down & I'm still not zeroed. Bullets are landing wherever they land! Bore is clean . . . no leading. O.K. let's try some PPV 150 gr. jacketed. These shot pretty good at fifty yards with open sights mind you . . . 2” groups with cataract laden eyes. Couldn't get them zeroed. Conclusion . . . p**s poor scope. Bought a 2-7x32 AIM longe eye relief scope after reading a ton of reviews. But cheap is cheap . . . I knew better.
If someone else had of done to me what I did to myself . . . I'd have killed him. Humility is an asset. Heh - heh.
