[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2991941, member: 116181"] 100% Put a 180 in it and it should seat fine, then check to see if it's an 11 twist instead of a 10. But that aside, IMO 2MOA+ isn't something minor like seating depth, it's something major like a warped stock or bad barrel fouling or something is loose. As much as I love old blued scopes (and I have several) a scope issue can't be ruled out on that rifle. I have a very similar vintage rifle that shoots very well for what it is, but scope adjustments are entirely hit and miss with it. Basically I check zero and never touch the knobs for as long as possible, accepting the reduced precision that comes along with it to keep the scope on the gun. [/QUOTE]
