[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1878080, member: 8873"] There are all kinds of potential issues here. The rail might not be level to the bore, the “glue” job not level to the stick-that’s not level to the bore, the reticle might not be level in the scope...blah, blah, blah Have you checked the reticle? Done a tall target test? What precision (groups) is your rifle/load producing? How far you wanting to shoot? You dialing the turrets or using a reticle? I gotta admit that if someone brings me a normal hunting rifle & scope and cannot answer any of these type questions I will just zoom the magnification out and eyeball it down the center of the action. I can get really close like this. If it’s a rifle that’s intended for extended ranges I will check the scope before wasting time mounting it, then take care in mounting. [/QUOTE]
