Not to go on telling stories but I once had a tasco that the reticles would spin in it as I would shoot. They would start in a t then end up in an x. It always shot true though. What kind of scope is on the gun by the way?

Also, has the rifle been shot alot? Broke in so to speak? What brand? I had a 22 mag one time that shot like crap until I had about 200 rnds through it, now it is a tack driver.
