Ok so the gun is a 6.5x47l shooting 139 scenars the scope is a swfa 12x.
Let's start with the positive from this test the distance this was shot at was exactly 100metres. The distance between my 2 shots at the bottom and the 2 shots at the top after dialling 10mil is exactly 100cm so the scope tracks spot on.
First negative is the scope is slightly canted as the groups at the bottom are just too the right and at the top they are just too the left. I levelled the scope with the flashlight against the wall method it is fitted with a low profile vortex bubble level thar was leveleled as best I could whilst keeping reticle level against wall. I'm not real keen on adjusting the bubble level as it may make the cant worse as it was very finicky to adjust. Would you adjust the cant based on what you can see here??
The main negative is the fact that I cant zero this god damn thing. I would have put at least 50 rounds down range trying to zero this thing!!!! And I'm getting sick of wasting ammo. I think I have it zero'd and then I go back out a few weeks later and shoot at 100 and the zero is way off. As you can see on the left of target I took 6 shots trying to zero it again and still didn't get it zero'd the windage always seems to be different. I want my zero to be right inside that black dot I'm aiming at. It's a mil mil scope does anyone have this issue or are your rifles zero'd to take out the centre of that dot every time??
The rifle is accurate during a seating depth test at 10 thou off the lands it shot a .14 inch 3 shot group I know 3 shot groups are not the real deal but it at least shows it's a accurate rifle. I just can't get the group exactly over the dot I'm aiming at anyone can help me please so over wasting expensive time consuming reloads.
