Yes, definitely a scope ring alignment issue. It can be adjusted by shimming.

you need to align the crosshairs of the scope with the bore of the barrel.

and then you need to keep the gun level,

a level on your scope helps greatly with making sure you keep the gun in the correct position,

so if you dont have a level, get one..



heres how to set up a scope so it is in line with the bore.



you have to align the crosshairs of the scope with the bore before you adjust your level to…level.

best method ive found is the mirror method,it perfectly aligns the crosshairs with the bore.

get a mirror,set it up at say 5yds,set your scope to 10 yds (or when its focused in the mirror)

look through the scope at your reflection in the mirror (a steady gun rest helps)

rotate the scope till the vertical crosshair intersects the center of the barrel when the crosshairs are centered on the scope objective.

"bam" your crosshairs are now aligned with the bore

then you can use a plumb line

(bright colored cord with a weight on the end hanging from a branch works for me)

to level the crosshairs,

(again a steady gun rest helps greatly)

then you can adjust the level to level.
