Scope adjustment lag

I'm getting dizzy

User error.

Definitely. But other 3x9 work with medium base. This will force scope back. I thought it was already at nice spot

Back can be better than forward. But it was hitting my hat.

If you have a flat bill, try curving it.

Take your hat off?

i just want to see a picture of whatever is happening. current clues:
power ring stuck on the rail, but somehow the turrets are the problem.
Turrets were the problem, but maybe stopped being a problem once the hat was put on.
Eye relief is wrong, or might be perfect, based on hat brim length.

Scope could be on backwards - that would account for the small rectile.

Scope could be on backwards - that would account for the small reticle.

quite possible, especially if it's an angled rail - i could see contact with the power ring and the front of the rail.

my first guess was rotated 90 degrees clockwise, but your guess is more likely.

edit to add - having the objective to the rear would also cause more hat interference.

How do we rate threads? I'd like to give this one 5 stars !

When did I mention turrets???????

Hat is not a concern, just mentioning farther back than normal.

Moving the scope back 1/8” shouldn’t affect your eye relief to the point of being unusable. If the eye relief is the same as the accupoint then you should be fine.

You didnt think it was goona come sighted in did you?

According to RS lore if we would've bought an SWFA it would come in zero'd and ready to go.

“If it wasn't for those stupid cool looking knobs for the kids, it probably would not be an issue.”

If that's making contact as is it's probably affecting the mount/shot/torque and all that. I definitely wouldn't shoot it like that.

The dial for the power ring is contacting rear my rail.

What was the reason for a 25 yard zero instead of 100?

Not on giant paper at 100. On at 25.

Did you attempt to adjust the point of aim?

 

[Marbles]

If no time for higher rings --> pull rail --> hacksaw off 1/4 inch --> remount. Or, just move scope back and adjust head position as 1/8 inch is pretty minimal.

You can replace the rail later. If it is bonded, heat will break it free. It is easy to rebound a rail.

 

[ResearchinStuff]

will not, cannot work as mounted in the photo. Marbles has one quick fix above, or slide that thing back a quarter inch.
