Will not hold pressure in chamber
SOURCE: How do I adjust my scope on my Crossman bb/pellet rifle .177
Assuming the scope is ok, and the gun is ok, it must be the shooter, Not you but the stance, holding, bench rest, something is not consistent. If I was you, I would set up a big piece of cardboard at 15 yards, get the rifle on a beanbag or a bench rest, aim at a one inch spot in the center of the cardboard, shoot about 3 times, depending on where the pellet is hitting, move the adj knobs accordingly, do it again, 3 times, adj, as many times as it takes, get it centered, then, shoot it about 3 times at a clean plate, if it hits it's mark 3 times, then you can try it standing, and you should be able to build confidence in it so you know where it shoots, and won't be discouraged. Now if the rifle is bad, or the scope mounts loose, you will fight the thing all day and end up trashing it. I would blame the mounts first, then the scope, then the rust spot in the barrel, rare. If it is a break action rifle, you can set it up in a box with v's cut into it, look through the bore at the target, make sure it doesn't move, the scope should be looking at the same exact thing, if it isn't, something is wrong. You can set it up this way to start, and then fine tune it with pellets. Check it out, hope this helps.
SOURCE: I Have a crossman .177 air rifle, that you have to
Some air gun problems are an easy fix, some require extensive presses and jigs to move springs around. Most are not to messed with. I know, I have tried my best to repair an air rifle or two and had to send them back to the company to get them fixed. And there is nothing I can't fix, I have a big machine shop, been gun smithing for years and couldn't fix a little air rifle. Check out this website, it might help you, or steer you in the right direction. ,,,,,,,http://www.airguns.net/faq.php#faq1
