once it is zeroed in you should not have to adjust again. Shoot from a bench rest in groups of three shots and then adjust. if it is a cheep scope take it off and use open sights you should not need a scope for 25yrd shots and 25yrds is the best you can hope for with an inexpensive gun.

You should not have to readjust it between shots. If you do have to readjust it, it may mean that the mount is loose and needs to be tightened. Another possible reason for the scope appearing to not stay zeroed is that your gun may not be consistent in how much velocity it imparts to the BB. A BB gun is just not all that accurate to begin with. As the spring wears, the velocity of the BB will decrease. When the spring becomes sufficiently worn and weak, the gun will become pretty inaccurate. First, check the scope mounts to be sure that they are tight and the scope cannot be moved. Then, if you happen to know anyone who has a chronograph, ask them to chronograph a few rounds from your BB gun to see how consistent the velocity is. Also, the scopes that are sold for BB guns are pretty cheaply made and have a LOT of parallax. Parallax is where if you move your eye from side to side while looking through the scope and your target appears to move you are seeing parallax. The only remedy for parallax is to be sure that you position your eye exactly the same from shot to shot. If you move your cheek from one spot on the stock to another from shot to shot, your shots will hit at different places each time you fire. So, it boils down to the most likely problems being (1) loose scope mounts, (2) changes in velocity from shot to shot and/or (3) too much parallax in your scope.

you shouldnt have to if scope has been set to your eyes . if you cant hit what your aiming at then your screws arent set tight enough or your sights or point of impact isnt set to you . focous should rarely need to be adjusted but for longer trys will need adjustment . read up on how to correctly set your bb gun so youll have confadence when you shoot and then enjoy many hours of fun but be aware your practiceing for real thing later with stronger gun so use good safety and only point at what you intend to shoot

The only time you have to change it is if you change your distance from the target!!!
