7MAG Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 well I dropped the sucker and knocked the scope last week , I went to the range ( didnt have much time ) and it was off way off . 7" low & 3.5" right . I adj it back to 2.5" high and centered . my question is do you guys think I should send the scope back to Bausch & lomb to get checked ? or shoot a few more rounds ? it seems to hold a good group but not as tight of a pattern as before . prior groups at 100 yds off the bench were .75" now there 1.5" .

SteveNY Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I would shoot some more rounds first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooly Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 my question is do you guys think I should send the scope back to Bausch & lomb to get checked ? . Excuse my ignorance, but why in the world would you send your scope to a contact lens manufacturer,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerthug Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Lol. He probably meant Bushnell???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 A group of 1.5" isn't bad at 100 yards. Perhaps you were having an off day. Assuming you have everthing tight, I think you're OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ny hunter Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I would try and shoot some more.If you got it back to where you had clean the gun and shoot again,you well know if something is wrong.B&L makes a great scope from what I've read.Don't think you well have a problem.
