The last new Leupold I bought was a VX3i 2.5-8x36 a few years ago. It went on a very accurate .257 Roberts Ruger Hawkeye. I never bother bore sighting so just shot it at 25m to get on paper. It was about four inches left and a couple of inches low. So moved it 64 clicks right and 16 clicks up. The next shot at 25m was an inch below the target square. So moved out to 100 metres and fired two more shots. They landed 3/4 or an inch to the left and about 2 inches high. So clicked the adjustment three clicks right and let the barrel cool. The next three shots went into a group about half an inch, two inches dead above the square at 100m so I left it. Seven rounds to get the rifle sighted in without bore sighting. The scope tracked in beautifully right out of the box. I've never touched it since and the rifle still shoots the same a couple of years later. But I'm just about to fire the last of my 100gn Nosler Solid Bases so will have to sight in another load soon, probably 100gn Sciroccos.
