[QUOTE="Rflamm250, post: 1477579, member: 105493"] Another thing to consider. What rings and bases are you using and did you lap the rings. R700 are known for being misaligned, I have a Rem 700 that I put a set of Talley Lightweights on. Lapped them and As soon as I got to around 8lbs of toque on the cap screws the parallax adjustment on my Ziess scope would go out of wack. When I would take the scope out of the rings everything would be back to normal. I ended up installing a rail with a set of seekins rings and everything works great, Just something to consider. I would take the scope out of the rings after it malfunctions and see if it corrects itself. If so you know its an issue with your mounts. [/QUOTE]
