Went out again today to check my gear over once again for Mammoth and found my scope has slid forward in my rings roughly an 1/8". I noticed between checking zero last week and checking today my poi had moved up .1 mil in the exact same conditions. Checked my dope out to 700yds with what was my "new" zero and everything checked out, rifle still shot great groups and the dope tracked dead on.
I get home and find the pencil marks I have on my scope tube to check for slippage indeed show the scope has slipped, and I assume caused this zero shift.
Scope is a leupold MK4 34mm with m5a2 turret in NF ultralight rings. I mounted this up the same way I have done with many other scopes but never had this issue until today. One other note, I have never used anything but badger rings until this setup.
Am I good to simply remount my scope, or should I go back to badgers that have never given me issues?
Who has the 1" high 34mm badgers (non usmc) in stock that could get them out asap? At this point I am afraid I won't be confident again until I put badgers back on.
Thanks
