New Scope Setting - 01/12/21
Hey guys I had a 39 dollar scope on my TC Omega Z5 muzzleloader. It was mounted in steel Millet rings. I got it sighted in and came home to clean it up. As I wiping it down one of the steel lips broke off of the bottom of scope ring that clamps to the rail. Kind of shocked me because I've used steel millet rings many times before without issue.
I knew I had to pull the scope back off and remount it. I put my arbor style bore sighter on the rifle to see where zero was located. It was 1square low and 2 squares to the right. I pulled out a set of burris signature rings and bought a Bushnell Banner and mounted it. I then placed the bore sight back on and adjusted this newly mounted scope to bee same as gun was zeroes before which was 1 square low and 2 squares right. Would it be safe to assume that it should hit pretty close to zero as I imagine the bore of rifle going be same place in relation to the scope..
Kind of crazy. I bought this muzzleloader around 2010 or 2011. At that time I put the 39 dollar scope on cause thats all I could afford. I never shot the rifle until a couple days ago when I sighted it in. Now I have redo it again.
