[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1213672, member: 70559"] Recenter the reticle[SIZE="5"][B]! [/B][/SIZE] Go with Burris Signature rings. Secure the rifle so both hands are free with the bore pointing at something you can see through it. Install only the lower rings and put a "0" insert in both ring bottoms. Hold the scope down by pushing only above each ring and check where the reticle is "looking". You can get about 1" at 100 for each of the increments printed on the ring halves. Sometimes I even turn them at 45 degrees to get them very close. If you need the reticle to go down, use a +10 or + 20 in the rear. If that is not enough leave the one in the rear ring and put a -10 or -20 in the front. You can get up to about 40 inches at 100 yards doing this. Make sure you push down only above the rings. Once you are as close as the inserts allow, install the other half of the insert and top rings. If one of our .com friends understands this but can make it clearer, please do. [/QUOTE]
