[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1593825, member: 12995"] Now that I know it's a Ruger #1... I hate to break it to you bud, but it sounds like you're barrel and receiver face are out of square and your barrel has pressure on it (or your barrel could be slightly bent), causing it to shoot upwards. Have a smith look into this rifle ASAP, before wasting anymore time or ammo trying to sight this rifle in. If this same setup worked on another Ruger #1, but not on this one, and you can't get zero, take it to a smith. Might need a new barrel put on it, and have the receiver trued up and squared. [/QUOTE]
