Riflescope Troubleshooting
Please check the following before returning a riflescope for service.
Many times, problems thought to be with the rifl escope are actually with the
rifl escope’s mount.
1. Be sure the mounts are tight to the rifle and that the scope is
secure in the rings; you should not be able to twist or move
the scope in the rings.
2. Insufficient windage or elevation adjustment range can
indicate alignment problems with base mount holes drilled in
the rifle’s receiver or riflescope base; this may also indicate
alignment problems with barrel and receiver. Re-center the reticle
(see page 10) and then check the bore sight. If the reticle is way
off while centered, base adjustment or shimming may be needed.
Consult a qualified gunsmith if unsure of correct procedure.
3. If a rifle fails to group well, be sure the rifle’s action is bedded
correctly and that all mounting screws are properly tightened.
The rifle’s barrel and action must be clean and free of excessive
oil or copper fouling. Be sure the ammunition works well with
the rifle—try a type known to have grouped well in the rifle.
