I have a new sako 85 finnnlite 243 with talley stainless steel rings that im trying to get ready for white tail season here in wv. I put a nikon 2.5-10x42 monarch on the rifle and im having issues sighting in the scope. I can shoot a three shot group inside a quarter at 100 yds but when I start making my click adjustments it goes 3-4 inches away from what im trying to achieve with my adjustments. This isnt my first rodeo sighting in rifles or mounting scopes so before you ask, yes everything is tight. I am shooting factory ammo however because I just moved and do not have my reloading equipment set back up just yet. Im shooting hornady 95 grain sst loads. How do I go about contacting someone from nikon and hows the customer service? Im hoping they have a quick turnaround because hunting season is in about three weeks. If I have to I guess another scope will be ordered, I just hate to right at the moment. Any suggestions guys?
 
Have you cycled your turrets from one extreme to the other...? I always run all the way left/right and up/down then mechanically center the reticle.

I don't know how much/if this will help, but it's worth a try...

You have a good quality scope. Contact Nikon at http://www.nikonusa.com/en/About-Nikon/Contact-Us.page
 
No I have not cycled the turrets and I bought the scope several years back.. I really like the scope for hunting purposes, not so much a target rig.. Is nikon very quick on their turnaround time?
