I hope someone here can give me a little insight about what may be going on. Today, I shot a match for the first time in about 6 months. Before the match began we were given ten minutes of practice to confirm zeros and get a feel for the 600 and 900 yards targets. Everything seemed perfect. I was hitting the steel at 900 and my zero was spot on. I shot about 15 rounds total during the practice session. During the match everything seemed pretty good at first but when we came down to the 600 yard line I was barely missing by an inch or two all around the plate. when it came back down to the 100 I noticed my zero had shifted about 2" high and about 1" to the left. All I did during the match was adjust my elevation and windage and all my stuff is torqued to spec amd loc tite. I consider myself a decent shooter with alot of room to learn but I just can't seem to figure this out. Is it me or my scope? O and also, I used an iPhone ballistics calculator to give me an idea of where to adjust my scope but when I shot using the suggested MOA I was shooting way too high. I inputed all of the information correctly so it wasn't operator error.... I would make the adjustment and when the calculator called for 17 MOA I was sitting at around 14 MOA for bullseye. Is that normal? I'm just trying to get a little clarification before the next trip to the range.

Re: Zeroing question about my NF
That's what I was thinking too. The elevation seems to be good but the windage seems to be off. I've never done a box drill to check tracking on this particular scope. Maybe I should. I bought this NF from a member here on the hide so will NF still standby their warranty if I'm not the original owner and if the scope isn't tracking correctly?
