Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles Old school guy here

scopes are a steel on steel friction adjustment, they are manufactured and on a shelf for who knows how long, then someone buys it, puts it on a rifle and expects them to move precisely as they are supposed to.
did you turn the adjustments stop to stop a couple times before centering? Thats what I do and seldom have one fail to move, may take a while to get it tracking precisely. Thats why target turrets track better the more ya spin them.

Give the butt of the rifle a couple of bumps every time you make an adjustment. It's a way of making sure you get the adjustment . Takes a second.

I usually give the scope a few bumps with my palm after making adjustments

The problem is the POS scope.

It could have moved bit if shooting 3 or 4 inch groups it's hard to what is really going on.
