    Firstly, 25 yards off bench and shooting pad support. 10 shots fired quite rapidly. .600"

    Next, 15 shots fired quite rapidly at 75 yards (top group). 1.505" After this group I remembered it was a 3-9 scope - I had been using 4x that it was set on. So I adjusted the scope down, set the scope on 9 and fired 5 careful shots at 100 yards. A right to left breeze had sprung up. .815"

    Interestingly, when I wound the scope down to get it back onto its 100 yard zero the dial aligned at its zero setting again - back to where it should have been. I can only guess that someone had had a fiddle with it - it has been loaned out.
    The TBolt is a neat little gun. Barrel uncut and a little muzzle forward suppressor
    So what do you think?
