[QUOTE="sdowney, post: 306348, member: 15618"] To Coyboy and the others who helped: Conclusion: I took the rifle to a respected smith here in Boise and I had both issues with this rifle. The factory receiver screw holes were misaligend. Jim tapped new, larger holes that actually lined up with the barrel. But the scope still canted left. Then, he expoy bedded the aft portion of the rail to minimize the twisting to the right when the screws were torqued down. These two fixes moved my scope from 18 MOA to the left to 1/4 MOA to the right! Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
