Seems to be several issues of late with the Axis II in 243 and the Weaver Kaspa…I have them on my wife's new MuddyGirl…First shot at 50 yards (supposedly boresighted from the factory) was well below the target and then the scope loosened up as I said in another post…Your issue is certainly mind boggling…I hope you get it rectified..I will be trying hers again at the range this week ….Dave
