DDm, thanks for clarification on the scope brand. I do plan on buying a new scope for it, probably a Nikon. Like you, I know what quality I will get with a Nikon as I do own a couple already. I just don't have the money to get it yet. I hope too by this spring but I am hoping the current setup will get me through the winter.

I have taken the scope off, checked the bases, remounted the scope, and made sure the rings are snug. I have reboresighted it but it will probably be after the holidays before I get out to shoot it again.

Thanks to everyone so far for the input.
