Hey all,
First Post please be gentle, I recently got into hand loading/chasing accuracy. While doing this I've found my Vortex CrossFire II 6-18X44 consistently loses it's zero.
I can go from hitting very tight groups at 100 to being off by a decent margin. After adding a compensator (severe Duty) My issue was made a bit better but it was still preset. I realize this is probably just due to the fact I am shooting a Very light rifle (the fix by Q) and using a very budget scope. I've marked the scope and the rings to make sure that the scope wasn't shifting in the mount and it stayed solid.
I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations for a scope I can grow into/ won't have to replace anytime soon for 500-1000 Yards.
I also planned to add a Proof research 6.5 Barrel to it as well so hoped to find something that will work well with both of these.
