tf 99 question

[scroller99]

I purchased a new tf99 and have put maybe 100 shots through it several different pellets and this gun shoots 8 - 10' low every shot, I have adjusted my grip as I should for a springer still no luck, any thoughts?

Need more info. Is it consistent where it's hitting, just low?

Are you using open sights or a scope? If it is consistently low, and rear sight is adjusted all the way up (move rear sight up to adjust point of impact down), possible sight mount problem?

Screws tight in stock?

Do you have access toa chrony? Maybe seal issue, resulting in low velocities? This was a pretty hard shooting rifle.

Yes it does consistantly shoot low, it doesn't give tight groups with any kind of peelets and I am shooting open sights. I'll have to check the stock screws though and yes it is a very hard shooting gun, I made a backstop and use magazines as the filler and it will shoot 1/2 way through a magazine easily.thanks Hwoard

I had the lower powered tf97 version that I finally sold.  It was good experience learning tear down and tuning.  However, holding groups was very unpredicatalbe and never better than 1-2 inches at 10yards.  Kinda disapointing but you get what you pay for I guess.  I learned a lot.

Make sure to have a solid spring compressor before launching into your teardown.  do some searching on tf97 or tf99 or qb-36 and you find quite a lot of info.
