[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1349431, member: 78569"] Last night I investigated the potential issue. I checked the level on the first gun and it was close. Bore sighting at 60 yards, the cross hairs were 5 inches to the right. [ATTACH=full]82003[/ATTACH] However, when checking level on the other gun, I discovered that the receiver was not milled parallel to the race ways. Cross hairs were 6" to the left when bore sighted. Seems like this I the problem. Seems like I need to shim up one side of the rail to make it level but I don't think that would bring the cross hairs in more. Any thoughts before I try epoxy bedding the rail with shim stock? [ATTACH=full]82004[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]82002[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
