Sighting in

[Navigar]

I have a friend who bought a red field scope and he had the same problem, he traded the scope for another (same model ) and it worked fine, I have heard of this before on other red field scopes as well it seams that some are worth it and some are just plain crap.

Throw the factory two piece bases away.
Mount a one-piece base of your choice.
Shim the front of the base to raise it at the front.
Problem solved.
Do Not shim the front or rear only of two piece bases, that will cause ring misalignment and may damage your scope.
Regards, Eagleye.

Words of wisdom.. as usual.

F*cking hilarious, almost fell out of my chair. I'd exchange for another, now correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't a one piece 20moa base mounted backwards be a little more trust worthy and secure than shimming?
