Hey guys. Just wanting to run a question by yall. I have a .243 chambered Remington 700 with a cheap scope on it. I took it to the range today just to see how it shot. I was using factory Remington (cheap Wal-Mart ammo) 100gr. As I shot my ten shot group the shots would hit further to the right. Vertical wasn't too bad, (about an inch vertical at 101 yds). I really couldn't ask for a whole lot better than that with this gun/scope combo. But the horizontal would travel back and forth for a spread of 3+ inches!!! This is not my long range gun by any means. In fact, it is my son's rifle that I hope to get him deer hunting with this fall. My first thought is the scope rings/bases are loose, but do you fellas have any other ideas as to what is causing my problem? Thanks in advance.
