I went out yesterday to sight in my Marlin 60 with a Bushnell rimfire 3-9x32 scope. I tried holding zero at 50 yds from a prone position with the rifle at rest. I would say about 40% of my shots landed where I wanted them to, and held to about 1" groups. The other 60% or so were all over the paper (3" high and 2" right, 3" low and centered, etc). I was shooting Federal bulk pack from WW.
Is it the cheap scope? Do you recommend a fixed over a variable scope for a Marlin 60? Should I try different ammo? I know bulk ammo is not the most reliable, but I had hoped for a little better than this.
Thanks, in advance, for your help and suggestions.
