[QUOTE="RangerBrad, post: 573629, member: 29387"] Hey fellas, Got my new Nightforce scope in last week ( very excited) Mounted it myself using EGW picattiny rail and TPS-TSR rings. I locktighted down rail but did not lock tight down rings or lap them. Centered the eye reliefe to my eye and corrected verticle of reticle with level. Took to the range to sight in and that is where my problem started. This is a very sharp shooting rifle with good hand loads. The problem and what I noticed is that if I make no turret corrections I am getting .2-.6 accuracy Sounds great right? However when I make a turret change lets say down 1 moa I might get down 2 moa and 1 moa right. Or maybe make a turret cange of left 1/2 moa and get 1 1/2 left and 1 moa up. I can't believe it's the scope. It was just inspected the 18th of October and a change to horizontal should not effect verticle and the oppisite is true. What really throws me is that if no changes are made to the turret it will drive tacks so it don't make since that the mount or rings are loose. Can yal help me? What is up with this? Thank's, Brad [/QUOTE]
