[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 625653, member: 34084"] I guess you can't rule out issues with the scope. The OP ran the elevation adjustment nearly to the limit. The true elevation depends on the calibration of the turrets, which may not be constant over range. Also, optical distortion could be a factor. If the windage adjustment was also far from the optical centerline (possible, depending on bore/receiver/base alignment) then there will be an error due to either pincushion or barrel distortion, if present.
