I would have to believe somehow it is your ring's/mount's giving you issues Ali.
If not, I wouldn't hesitate to send it back to Manuf. and let them evaluate it. I had to do that a few year's ago with a carbine,
would not group at all. 2-3 shot's maybe, after that 6-9 inches. Just so I was sure they wouldn't send me back the same rig I asked for a
longer barrell. Got it back and all was good, then I sold it and switched brands. As frustrating as this is I think you just need another set of eye's on the problem.
There are those occasional times where there just is no reasonable reason and you will try everythign you can think of and thing's just still won't work.
Remember, this is supposed to be fun, when in doubt, send it back to shop.
I got a new mount and rings this weekend along with the new scope.
I still believe there was something going on with the CS scope. I now got shots in a much tighter grouping when things seem to be working.
I think I need another set of eyes as well. I have already had a couple people watching but only one person shot it other than me and they were no luckier in the matter.
FarmerJ is going to come help me this week hopefully. I have a coyote hunting trip planned for next weekend. I figured I had plenty of time to deal with all this but apparently I didn't.
I talked to teh guy at cabelas and he agreed that there seemed to be something wrong with the nikon. He told me to send it back. I shipped it out saturday.
I am thinking maybe something is wrong with the gun?? maybe something loose? I dont know jack squat about internals on guns.
I find it hard to believe that I am that bad of a shot and when someone else grabs it and does the same thing, then that makes two really bad shots. I am totally open to that being plausible but I need to rule some other things out that I am unable to do on my own.
