My lucky day
Today I moved a VX-6 from a Winchester 375 Safari Express with medium Leupold PRW rings to a Remington 700 with an older Brown Precision stock. I put new bases and low Warne rings on the 700, without looking through it I tightened the scope just enough so it would not fall off, and headed off to find the right distance placement and level the crosshairs.
Amazingly the scope was somehow spaced just right in the rings and the crosshairs were dead level. I just torqued the screws and double checked everything. Then I bore sighted and it too was perfect without any adjustment at all!
I could not even guess at how many scopes I have mounted and this was a first for me. Usually it takes me a while and a more than a moderate amount of effort to get everything right. Maybe I should buy a lottery ticket.
