[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1289658, member: 2736"] It is not uncommon for a rifle to shoot somewhere other than the bore siting indicates. bore siting is only for getting the zero "Close" final zeroing will be necessary without the bore scope. Barrel harmonics, stock fit. bedding or lack of and ammunition used can all contribute to this. If everything is tightened on the scope mounts and rings. adjust the recital to the bullet impact and then look at the group. if the brake is being struck by the bullet it should be apparent in the group size or you will see copper on/in the brake. At 25 yards it will be hard to tell what is wrong. (The bullet strike should be low at 25 yards if a scope is used because of the difference in the barrel center line and the scope centerline.
