[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 3015107, member: 109229"] Yes indeed, you got lucky! I swap optics rather frequently and am always surprised (probably should not be) at how much I have to spin the turrets to get them back on paper. Thankfully, in all these years I have only once run out of elevation/windage adjustment. The other day I was at the range and a nice elderly fella was there with a Howa chassis rifle he had gotten for Christmas. He had gone through a box of ammo, trying to get it on paper at 25 yards, and very frustrated. I slapped my bipod on it for him, pulled the bolt and boresighted for him at 50 yards (he was off 3 feet to the left). He said, “ I thought it was boresighted at the factory” 😕. After that, he was on paper at 50 in one shot and managed a 1.25 MOA group at 100 yards before he left. He was tickled pink and handed me a box of his once fired brass! [/QUOTE]
