    So to put this thread to bed or lay it down for a while !! I swapped the meopta 3-18 for a vx5 3-15 now I still cant say for certain there was anything wrong with the meopta the mounts/rings may not have been done 100% from the get go , talking to my mate the young fella at the shop that set it up may not have tightened things up sufficient but that said these magnums have a way of been hard on gear , moving forward I zeroed the new scope (thanks @Paddy79 ) at 200y then went to 400 could see the group a little to the rite so moved 1 click left then 500 , its not my finest shooting by any means but finally some success after chasing my tail for some time , I relied solely on the app for the 6 shots , the app said 3.7 moa at 400 so I adjusted 3moa & 3 clicks for 500 it said 5.9moa so I rounded it to 6 that said the 500 group is a touch higher .
