[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1212158, member: 8873"] Yep, something is definitely off here. A .204 Ruger with velocity over 4,200 fps wouldn't do what you encountered. With your .300 WM, and assumed velocity of around 2900 fps or more, your 1" high zero would have be about 50 yards. Was this repeated or just one group at 100 and then one group at 200? If not some kind of crazy human or range error then I would look to the scope for fault, as ATH stated. The Viper is a decent scope but it is still a budget scope. The good thing is Vortex will take care of you. I however would have a hard time trusting one if it failed right out of the box. [/QUOTE]
