[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1731264, member: 109229"] Admittedly not, Sherm. I have to adjust them and in all likelihood,they are not in the middle of the adjustment range. But if the allignment bars line up point to point, I figure the holes tapped in the receiver are pretty darn close (front to back). Where I have seen issues is with a Savage (recently in fact) that the tapped holes were not “Top Dead Center” (if you will) but were ok front to back. This made scope cant a bit harder to manage and I would accept that in reality, the axis of the scope is off-set to the bore, albeit imperceptible to me. I fussed over it a bit but then thought of the St. Marie’s Mount on my K-31 (really offset!). In any event, I know that these differences can be significant way out beyound certain distances, I just don’t have to worry about it at the ranges I shoot. [/QUOTE]
