[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 1703955, member: 107384"] I've never had an occasion to use it but here is a method someone posted somewhere to mechanically center a scope; something I'd definitely do if I bought one used. Maybe try it before sending it back. "Stand the scope vertical, large objective down on a small mirror (makeup type mirror works great). You'll see 2 reticles...the actual reticle and a reflection. Adjust your windage and elevation and you will see the reflected reticle move. Adjust both directions until the reflection is directly over the top of the stationary reticle. You'll be adjusting opposite direction of the movement of the reticle to the mirror." [/QUOTE]
