jandcguns 65 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hi guys I recently dropped my aa s200 of my deben pro bench rest about 7 inch high (stupid stupid me ) and went to zero the scopes and they were shooting about 14" to the right so I clicked the scopes in and it's now shooting about 1"- 1 inch and a half to the right and the scopes will no longer click the turret just spins around and makes no difference anyone know what's wrong or could help. Thanks,jack Quote Link to post
Tron 173 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Sounds as if the front barrel support has moved when you dropped your rifle. no problem, slack off the barrel support and retighten then reset zero. Quote Link to post
barrywhite 282 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 as above..... .but reading what you have written you may have damaged your scope in some way buy turning the turret to much trying to compensate for your barrel being moved after the drop. 1 Quote Link to post
jandcguns 65 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Thanks, how do I tighten the barrel support ? And I have a felling the scopes could be damaged not sure though. Quote Link to post
barrywhite 282 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 not sure about your gun exactly but it must be the same as or similar my s400 .there is most likely 1 or 2 allen screws .loosen them and the barrel support should rotate on the air cylinder .adjust it until it is not pushing the front of the barrel left or right .at that position tighten the allen screws Quote Link to post
jandcguns 65 Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 sorted the barrel support and no difference. so the scope turret is just spinning around even when you click it back so it must be the scopes dose anyone know if this is fixable or do i need new scopes Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Very strange my money would have been on the barrel support band! Take your scope out the mounts and take mounts off the rifle then set it all back up, rezero and see how you get on. Quote Link to post
jandcguns 65 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 thanks for all the help guys it was the scope turret but is now fixed due to a lose screw on the turret and i sorted the barrel support aswell. Quote Link to post
