So I just picked up a new scope & leveled it up & the reticle looks like it's canted to the left! I really don't wanna go through the hassle of returning it since it was a royal pain in the ass to get in the first place. Is there anything I can do?
 
Re: Scope Problem

Double check to make surenthe rifle was level also.when you leveled the scope. Then send it in. Or maybe your eyeball is crooked!

Re: Scope Problem

Nah, my eyeball is straight as an arrow. I triple checked it myself & then took it in to my local gun store to confirm & they said is was crooked as hell. Optics Planet is being a bitch about taking it back so I contacted the manufacturer & they're gonna take care of me.
 
Re: Scope Problem

If the retciel wasn't level with the scope it's probably not level with the erector mechanism either. What kind of scope is it?

It's an Osprey 4-16X50mm. I have another one & my dad also has one & they're great. I guess I just got a lemon.
