[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 678831, member: 2011"] I'm with all of you guys on this one. I do what J E does for the most part. A weird thing though. . . Grit did a rebarrel for me. When it came time to replace the scope, he took it completely apart. I looked on with trepidation with touches of anxiety. He carefully aligned the bottom rings using a wrench on the front dovetail ring. I asked him why he didn't do as I do, simply insert the front ring in the base, grab the scope and crank it into position. He responded, "in front of the customer?":) I must have missed something while he was completing the process. I got home, sighted in, cranked the elevation turret up about 20 moa, then down 10 then down 5 then back to zero. Hmmmm, a perpendicular string!!! It may have been luck, but if not Grit has a knack!:) Or maybe he knows something I sure don't.:rolleyes: I'm a happy shooter. . . If the temp would drop back to reasonable and the smoke from wild fires would dissipate so I could see the targets.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
