[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 669080, member: 34084"] I don't think the windage test rules out the barrel and receiver as the culprit. Sending the scope back may only waste time with no solution. More likely the barrel is installed crooked - in this case pointing down. This would be difficult to see with the action in the stock. I suspect you would need vee blocks and a flat surface to confirm. I guess it could also be that the bore is not straight. The end result would be the same. I would check another scope first. A boresight collimator would help here. I think a 30-40 MOA base is in the cards. [/QUOTE]
