[QUOTE="ronny, post: 2318814, member: 8853"] I would do something along the lines of what lee1000 said; start over at the beginning. Take it down to the mount and just visually inspect it for proper alignment with the barrel. When you're satisfied with that, try to take the scope back to default/center and mount it. Then give it the same visual inspection aligning it with the barrel. Then, with the bolt removed, put the rifle in a stable position, a gun vise or rest, if you have it. Then look through the barrel and find a spot/object somewhere, on a wall, a barn or something that is far enough away so you can focus the scope. Then look through the scope and see where you are with regard to that spot. If the spot/object is about 25 yards, you should be able to find it easily through the scope. If it's not there, then there is something mechanically wrong. I know, this sounds messy, but it works. [/QUOTE]
