[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1207436, member: 54178"] ALWAYS check for a plumb reticle with a new scope. If it's off vertical send it back immediately. It happens to the best of them, believe it or not. There are shooting checks on tall targets (4 to 5 feet tall with true vertical line down the center and stick-on orange dots every 6 inches vertically). This check is usually done by long range competitors like NRA F Class because some off-vertical crosshairs cannot be seen with gross thru-the-scope checks. Do this check at 100 yds. on a dead calm day with the target set with a plumb line on the vertical line. If the bullets begin to wander off center as you click the scope crosshairs upwards for each dot then it is not a true vertical crosshair. SEND IT BACK with a photo of your tall target(s). Eric B.
