Whitetail hunting here at home. Climbed up in the stand that sits over our food plot.
Its roughly about 15' to the seat. Stand is an old 2 man ladder stand we use that never gets moved.
Have hunted out of it a lot in the past.
Sat my rifle on the corner of the shooting rail like I always do and went to sit down and i must have bumped the rifle and down it went. straight to the ground and landed flat on the side.
Had dirt bedded in the Parallax adjustment knob on the scope.
So ill now get to see how far this thing is off. It was dead on at the start of season.
Scope is a Vortex Viper PST Gen 2
I know a lot talk about how bad they will not hold a zero. So ill find out here soon and see.
Might try and get out to the range tomorrow.

I mean it fell 15 feet onto its side. Even if the scope was able to pass the Rokslide drop test, I'd expect it to shift from a fall like that.
