I have a HS Precision w/ unknown 2 pc picatinny mount, Smith HD rings, and Leupold 3.5-10 M1. This HS was a fantastic shooter 3/8-1/2 moa easy, but I had only about 8 moa left in windage travel. I left it this way for years, I wanted to try my set up to 1000 yds, but I know I will be at a disadvantage. I tried different scopes, different rings , but same problem. I figured the mounting holes were off to the bore. Finally I took off the mounts, I checked the mount holes w/ my calipers and the rear mount is off centered .020". In other words the mounting holes are off-centered to the outside of the mount itself. The front mount is centered pretty well. Could this defective rear mount be the culprit. I believe I got them at a gun show years and years ago( they are the same as Rem 700 but w/ 8-40 threads ) , I do not remember. I contacted HS but they told me to learn to use my mils...BTW Thanks to all
