About two weeks ago I zeroed my rifle and Trail XP50... below was the end result.
Went to the range today to see if after the couple times I had it out if the zero had changed. I had fired zero rounds since initial zero and had not taken the thermal off the rifle.
I was disappointed to see I was low and right upon check fire... a great 3-shot group none the less but certainly NOT where it should have been... see pic below...
I made this correction left/up...
Then made a final adjustment and final zero check shot...
Bottom line is the rifle shoots great and I can certainly shoot... I'm hoping this is a fluke and the stories I've read about the Pulsar thermals not holding zero don't ring true.
While some my say the approximately 2" off is no big deal but keep in mind... the zero was two weeks old with no significant use since... so a 2" off zero is disappointing. Still a kill shot to the body but not the precision I prefer when hunting.
Thoughts?
