Things just don’t stay the same

I really can’t recall Wayne, I think both elevation and windage were moved more then what you would consider normal on all the scopes that I have fitted on it. I once tried a Bullseye ZR mount and had to shim that as well. I might splash out and buy a set of Sportmatch adjustable height and windage mounts. But they don’t have an arrestor pin and cost $262 Aus. Decisions decisions.

That can effect to ability of the scope to hold settings. When a scope adjustment is turned to far in one direction the erector springs lose tension. Tension on the spring is needed to hold scope settings. Mechanical zero your scope and try shooting at a target 30-40 feet away. If your scope rings are in alignment with the bore your shots should be horizontally close to your aim point. I prefer mine to be around 1/2 inch or less at 10 meters. The closer you get to not having to make any windage adjustments the better off you are.
