Thread: chasing groups off the paper

Scope is a Leupold VX2. He shot the weekend before to zero it all after having the scope mounted by a store and it was hitting the paper and he was happy with it. But he said it was creeping up a bit towards the end of the evening. he was just wanting to spend this evening behind the rifle to tighten up his groups. But we walked away feeling a bit defeated.

We had a basic screw driver set out there and he checked over all the screws and nothing was loose. No play or movement in the scope, would you expect to feel the play if something was loose enough to put the sight out by that much?

I'm not too sure if he's ever taken his rifle to a range and put a box of ammo through it before to know what it does. Normally shoot a couple rounds into the quarry wall on our way into the bush and we're happy.
