[QUOTE="glassman, post: 205452, member: 6503"] The first thing that I always do before I ever mount the scope is to see if the rings are aligned properly. With the bottom rings in place, lay a 1" dia. rod that is long enough to reach to the end of your barrel, (use either wood, aluminum or steel) into the rings and then tighten the upper half of the rings. This will show how much the bases or rings are out of alignment with the barrel. By doing it this way, you should be able to find the problem as to why it's off. Oh, if it's 30mm rings, then you have to use inserts around the rod to make it tight in the rings. It's possible that the receiver holes were drill off center. [/QUOTE]
