[QUOTE="Laelkhunter, post: 2588377, member: 38154"] I doubt that the scope is causing the bullets to go through the target sideways, UNLESS the bad scope is causing the bullets to be so far off target (low) that they hit the ground in front of the target, then bounce up and go through sideways. That would also explain why one bullet mushroomed before it went through the target. Doublecheck twist rate of barrel and make sure it is what is recommended for the given bullet weight, and as others have recommended mount a proven optic, and try again. [/QUOTE]
