I put an old Weaver 6 power wide angle scope on my Henry 45-70 X Model rifle. With it strapped down in a rifle rest it is shooting 1st shot dead on target, 2nd shot is 2" high, 3rd shot about 6" high, 4th shot about 12" high, 5th was off the paper. All shots were straight in line vertically not more than 1/2" off to the right, so windage was more than acceptable. Elevation has me stumped, why is every shot going higher than the previous. Is it the scope, the rings or the base? Every thing seems tight and loctite was used. Anyone have any ideas? It shot nice groups with factory sites, so
I think it has to do with the scope set up.
