[QUOTE="JustMe2, post: 2389273, member: 42494"] My forearm sling swivel on my Model 70 300WM let loose and my rifle hit the frozen ice on the front bell. Shot at a Quebec caribou in 1990 and was able to see I hit high. Used Kentucky windage and held about 2 feet under Caribou at about 150 yards, DRT. Back at camp it shot about 4 feet high at 100 yds and I couldn't get it to hold zero. It was a Shepherd 3-10, sent it back and the bell threads were knocked loose. They fixed it, lubed it, etc and sent it back to me no charge. Has held zero ever since. Got rid of those swivels and replaced with lockable swivels. [/QUOTE]
