Roubleshooting
Sighting-in Problems
Many times, problems thought to be with the scope are actually mount
problems. Be sure that the correct base and rings are being used and
are in the correct orientation. Be sure that the base screws and rings are
tight. An insufficient windage or elevation adjustment range may indicate
problems with the rings, base, base alignment, base mount holes drilled in
the rifle’s receiver, or barrel/receiver alignment.
Check for Correct Base and Ring Alignment
1. Roughly center the reticle by adjusting both windage and elevation
turrets to the mid point of their travel ranges.
2. Attach the bore sighter, or remove bolt and visually bore sight the
rifle.
3. Look through the scope. If the reticle appears way off center on the
boresighter image or when compared to the visually centered target
when looking through rifle’s bore, there may be a problem with the
bases or rings being used. Confirm that correct base and rings are being
used—and in the proper orientation.
Tips for Solving Bullet Grouping Problems
• Maintain a good shooting technique and use a solid rest.
• Check that all screws on rifle’s action are properly tightened.
• Be sure rifle barrel and action are clean and free of excessive oil or
copper fouling.
• Check that rings are correctly torqued per the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• Some rifles and ammunition don’t work well together—try
different ammunition and see if accuracy improves.
