Have a bsa martini and even at 15feet the gun hits 2 inches left of bullseye. Ive front sight amd rear sight drifted as far as possible and still left. Has anyone any fixes or do I need to bring to gunsmith and check alignment of barrel to receiver? Or is it a lost cause?

The upper set screw can be loosened to give more movement, left or right, and then set again

If you can do the job, do it. If you can't do the job, just teach it. If you really suck at it, just become a union executive or politician.
