    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    @PrecisionUnderground That makes sense, if not I don't know how anyone got through sniper school decades ago using only a 10x scope shooting a 308 Win.

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    +1 To the OP, If the reticle is canted and you're sure it's mounted correctly send it in the the manufacturer.

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    Exactly, Or a MOA scope which is more precise, 1/4, or 1/8 moa vs 1/10 mrad. Edit: I haven't used moa in over 20 years, that said a fraction of something is still a number!

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    That's what I've done for over two decades without the fancy equipment, and why I tried to point out no matter what might look level and plum you better make sure your bullets are going vertically as you dial.

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    You guys are so focused on whether or not the scope is built correctly and/or does it track correctly and just assumed I threw that out the window! Yes, the OP could have a scope reticle not plum, more than a few have been produced with that issue. Known fact, so rule that out. Even the...

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    Just remember.... the bullet does not lie, what it does, tells you what it is doing.

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    @KnowNothing256: I'm fully aware of that, what you're missing is what can happen when it gets mount to your barreled action! Look at those little bubbles resting on the base from Frank's picture. The POA and POI tells the story..... the bullet need to go where you aim, period.

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    @Shootinstuff: Here's where you incorrectly diagnosed the very issue I stated, and you seem to think by changing windage at 100 yards zero is a fix while dialing out for shots going left to right? Good luck with that...

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    Oh really, the guy from Downunder with all the thunder! First off I made no mention about how well or not the scope tracks. I suppose having your bullets going left to right or right to left diagonally as you dial up at a stationary target with a 4' plum line drawn on the target vs your...

    Issue with mounting scope... in relation to the rifle its at bit of an angle

    This is why I prefer to use a plumbob, door or window frame that's plum and square and eye it up..... Then I'll go out with a known load for the gun and do a tall target test @ 100 yards with a 4-5 foot plum line. If it tracks correctly I leave it, if not I'll rotate it in fractions of mm until...

    I wonder why so little info is out there from Sierra, and whether or not these will cause a phase out of the TMK.... Which for me I'm not a fan of.

    Brass Catcher

    This is by far the best thing currently out there. I've used and abused it in field conditions over broken terrain for four years now.... Buy once cry once and be done with it IMO. To each is their own though.
