Lone Wolf range report

Thanx, that was a help. I just spent the last 30 minutes reading thru your previous posts.
Full disclosure here: I am not a very good rifleman. I do not do any reloading. My approach is more from the mechanical, scientific, theoretical, method. You have much more knowledge about the practical side of this problem than I do.

That said, after noodling all evening on this, I predict.... Ta DA!


Scope interior - loose glass or reticle.

Possibly and not out of the realm of possibility that I will send it in to Bushnell. Next time out I will see what happens. I remounted it and haven't shot it yet. I thought I may have had a lose mount or rings. If it hasn't settled down it goes back. I already talked to a rep.

Thanks Hombre, but I'm too creaky.

Just because I can do that from sandbags on a solid cast concrete bench doesn't mean I could do it off a rock after hiking through the woods all day.

Now if I just sat in a blind all day waiting for game, maybe; but that's not much like hunting.

On the other hand, with my eyesight I'd be lucky to spot a deer at all at 100 yds.

Just stick a bunch of dollar bills in your belt and pretend you are a herd of doughs. (sorry, couldn't resist.)

Looks like you are gonna have to go pig hunting with a blade.

You could mount the suspect scope on a rifle that is known good and see if that combo starts to string out. Then mount a known good scope on the lever action and see if it groups better. That may be diagnostic in this situation.

It may come to that.

I don't want to hijack Caddmann's thread. I will start my range report after next trip out.
