playing the good, but lazy hubby, bought this package deal for the wife that comes with a bushnell "sharpshooter" 3-9x40 scope already mounted ... how bad could that all be for $255/shipped to my ffl?

well ...

the rifle arrived last week and i stiffened the fore and butt stock with rockite, added a caldwell 6-9 pivot bipod and tweaked the accu-trigger with an apachee kit that got the trigger down to about 9ozs. took it my club's police indoor 25yd range last night along with a few boxes of cci .22lr standards. shooting off the bipod, the scope was WAY off in both focus and alignment. it took 40 rounds and maxed out the full left adjustment on the scope to finally begin to zero in dead center. the last 5 rounds (left target face) finally got it together, but this was with a blurry target at about 6x that i just could not get the glass to focus well, at any magnification or target distance. other than the krap glass, the rifle is a sweetie and my wife will love it ... with NEW glass!
