    At the Extreme end of Windage Adjustment Knob but ...

    This is probably a really dumb mistake that I hope can be corrected readily ...

    I installed my 2.5-10X Nightforce scope on my SCAR recently. Everything seemed fine in my first two range trips after zeroing. On my third trip to the range, my shots were off to the right by 8-10 inches! I was baffled. But I proceeded to make windage adjustment on the scope and had reached the extreme end of the adjustment knob. But, my shots are still 1-2 inches off to the right. How do I correct this situation? I suspect the scope was "knocked" off axis in the left-right direction. If so, do I just remount the scope and see if this correct the problem? Thanks.

    Pretty much, recenter your windage, take the scope off and then remount it, making sure everything is nice and tight.

      are you sure one of your mount or ring nut/bolt didn't come loose?
