Was thinking of taking it back to cabellas but the last guy that "sighted" our rifles were off by 20+ clicks on both axis!!!! couldnt believe it.
There should not be any reason for someone else to set up your scope for you. It is this simple:
At the range, using a flat surface,
stabilize your rifle using a bipod and rear bag.
Take the bolt out, point your rifle at a large target about 25 yards away. Look through your rifle bore and adjust the rifle until you can see the target through the barrel. Do the best you can to center the target in the circle you see through your bore.
Take your ring caps off. Being careful not to move the rifle, and using your windage and elevation turrets, move the crosshairs to the bullseye of the target.
Load a round, aim at bullseye, and shoot one shot.
Get crosshairs settled on bullseye again.
Being careful not to move your rifle, use the windage and elevation turrets to move the crosshairs to the bullet hole.
Aim at bullseye, and shoot one shot again.
Get crosshairs settled on bullseye again.
Being careful not to move your rifle, use the windage and elevation turrets to move the crosshairs to the 2nd bullet hole.
Increase your distance, shoot your "groups", and adjust as needed using the same approach.
