    New shooter from Christchurch

    Hey guys, Tim here. Have used your forum a few times now for some info on bits and pieces, so thought i'd join up!

    I've done a bit of hunting here and there over the years (pigs / possums/ bunnies) but have only recently got my Firearms license and I've bought a brand new Ruger 10/22 with a hushpower suppressor and a 3-9x40 ranger scope with mil dots.

    Not very happy with the way it's shooting so far, have sighted it in for 25m just for a start.
    I've put several rounds through it which have hit bang on the bullseye lined up with the crosshair.
    But last time I went out to the range @ mcleans island - the spread was about 2-3 inches with the occasional "flyer" ending up about 4-5 inches out. Not very consistent.

    I've been using CCI brand ammo

    Any thoughts on why it's being so inconsistent?
