Hey Guys.
First the equipment list: American Defense - Recon mount (1.470" centerline to top of rail) Leupold Mark4 #67950 M2 Dials - TMR reticle LWRC M6IC-A5 5.56\223 16" barrel Intended shooting range - Out to 500 yards max. Here's the problem I have: I went to the range (50 yard) and used a laser bore sighter (Laserlyte) to get the setup on paper. Well sadly I am a full 2 MIL's UNDER the crosshair (center of target) ..... and I am bottomed out on this scope.(Downward rotation on the elevation dial) which means I'm holding over 2mils to hit target dead center. How would you correct this problem? I was about to order 0.5 risers which would hopefully solve the problem, and thought I would ask the guys here with experience before plunking down cash for modifications. Thank in advance for your help. |

Secondary question ........... Did Leupold screw up my scope or did they modify it so that I can get maximum elevation????
I found out what the problem is. I sent this scope in to Leupold to have it converted from M3 to M2. I was at the range today with some friends and it was suggested that I put the scope to a mirror to ensure I can get a mechanical center. Well I can't, because the downward zero stop prevents me from going any further - I still have 28MOA of elevation. So, here's what the mirror shows in the vertical alignment @ the downward zero stop. http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f106/lohman001/IMG_0564_zpsrhybhvle.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f106/lohman001/IMG_0565_zpsmmxcsudc.jpg |
