First and foremost you need to practice more. If you're a brand new shooter bring your target into 50 yards and get sub inch groupings with that while you figure out your trigger pulled and breathing.

Second you need a better optic. I've got the crossfire 2 on my 10/22 as a rabbit/grouse gun and it does the trick but the sight picture is tough passed 100. Not that the scope is bad, per se, it's just not up to the task you're throwing at it.   Rim fire precision shooting warrants good optics if that's what you're aiming to do - tiny bullet needs tiny placement.
