Hey all, thanks in advance for any help.
I have a POA POI issue with my new mossy 500 combo. It came with a 28" vent rib bbl and 18.5" smooth bore bbl. I tested the 18.5" bbl out today at the range with some 2 3/4" 1600fps 1oz rifled slugs (Federal Power Shok). At 50 yards I was shooting at a 12"x12" shoot-n-c. POA was dead center and impact was over 1ft high and 1ft left. I held POA at bottom of target (6 oclock hold) and next slug hit about an inch above the target on the right hand corner. Once I knew where it was shooting I held low and left and put one throught the center of the target. I was able to hit consistantly after that by holding low and left but I don't have any sights to adjust and this isn't going to be acceptable for me. What can be done? Is it the barrel, the gun or the ammo?
Regards,
JPW.
