[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 4509308, member: 12277"] Even if the receiver were bored out of spec so that the barrel were mounted with an upward tilt, that would be no different than adjusting the scope elevation downward or shiming the rear scope mount to tilt the scope downward. Any of these situations would cause the problem of running out of adjustment before getting Zeroed. But the impossible trajectory...........I don't know what to say. Maybe I could get you to bless my 257 Weatherby? If you can enhance it to the degree of your 308 Marlin, I'll have a laser beam and will never have to consider range again! :) Seriously, I don't know what to say to explain how the POI is 6"at 220 yards and only 3" at 100. :( [/QUOTE]
