    They sell them without rails too

    Can't zero scope. Is it defective or am I? NX8

    Thanks for the link. I just ordered it. I'm confident that this will solve the problem. I wish I had realized 1 day sooner that defiance actions are not the same as Remington 700; I could have avoided the need to return the Leopold I ordered. Sorry if I offended anyone. I'm not super...

    Can't zero scope. Is it defective or am I? NX8

    I’m sure there is some good reason they make their receivers with non-standard heights, but I was not aware of it when I bought it. I’m trying to keep the weight down as this will be my hunting rifle, and their rails are quite heavy. If nothing else works, I will try their rail.

    It looks like we're getting close to solving this. Thank you all for your input. I'll try the 0 MOA rail first. If that doesn't do the trick, there are some other good suggestions here to try.

    Can't zero scope. Is it defective or am I? NX8

    I just ordered a new rail from optics planet. Leupold 0 MOA. The rail is Area 419. I can't find my caliper, but as I examined it closer, it says 20 MOA on it (sorry. Its been a long time since I built this thing.) The receiver is a Defiance Tenacity from Gunware. The rings are Night Force.

    I don't have any way to verify that it's actually 30 MOA, but it was advertised as such. Maybe I need to try a flat rail. I just tried another scope. Same issue. My scope doesn't have a center screw. Its a permanent cap in the middle between the 4 set screws.

    I just pulled a scope off an old hunting rifle. I'll see if the problem replicates on a different scope. The rifle and optic are both new.

    Can't zero scope. Is it defective or am I? NX8

    My rifle shoots about 6 feet high at 100M. It can't adjust elevation any lower. I thought there might be something mis adjusted in the zero stop, so I loosened it up all the way and cranked it as far as I could. I broke the retainer cap. Night Force repaired it for me and sent it back. They...
