[QUOTE="Defens, post: 1059085, member: 84753"] The holes might be lined up in a row, but that line could be off axis to the centerline of the receiver, perhaps. Try putting a precision straight edge along each side of the base - it could be getting warped when you tighten the screws down. Also, take a straight edge and line it up along all the mounting holes and see if it points directly down the barrel, or is it cocked off to one side? Or, for that matter, check the base against a flat surface when it's off the scope - Nightforce is very high quality, but perhaps a scope mount slipped out that was warped. However, this seems unlikely since a different base did the same thing. [/QUOTE]
