[QUOTE="Bret GRAVELINE Graveline, post: 2463301, member: 108926"] In today's world of computer automation I wouldn't be looking at the mounting holes being off center, although anything is possible with the quality of hired help these days, I would suspect the rings or base being the problem before the receiver, with it being that far off, something should be noticeable to the eye, either the receiver or the rings and base, I've seen nearly all manufacturers of scopes faulty out of the box, and that would include swavorski, at this point the first thing id check if it were I, I'd first turn the rings 180 degrees to see what if affect that had, if the screw holes are off on the base a set off calipers should give you a idea if everything is on center, next I'd check the angles of the dovetails on the scope base, or if you have one throw another scope on and check for travel, it does need to be a high-end scope to check this, [/QUOTE]
