So, I have a few questions about sighting in my scope. I am pretty new at this air gun stuff, although I've had a old pneumatic in the past.

I watched some youtube videos and eventually got my scope "sighted" to where I was consistently hitting a target dead on center at about 10 meters away. However, this past weekend I was target shooting in my backyard (in Toronto - I'm sure I'm violating some by-law but I frankly I don't care). I had my target set up about 35-40 meters away.

I was hitting it consistently but I was consistently "high" of the center mark. I'd say about 3-4 inches high of my aim point. I didn't try to adjust my scope because I wasn't sure that was the thing to do because I was shooting something so far away.

There was virtually NO wind involved so I do not believe it was a factor.

I guess the reason why I am puzzled is because I figured if it was dead on center at 10 meters, I'd be dead on center at 35. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm shooting a non-pal, Benjamin Sheridan Trail NP All Weather .22 cal.
