  • Trouble sighting new rifle in

    One of the lower receivers I purchased fromt he group buy was mated to an AR57 upper. I purchased it slightly used(looks brand new) asnd it came with a scope riser and cheap simmons scope. I tried sighting it in up close at 50 yards and couldn't adjust enough. I set up a couple targets and shot. I was hitting about 2 feet lower than where I had my crosshairs. I tried ajusting my scope but could only get a few inches of movement before it was at max adjustment. I tried searching for an angled riser to tilt the entire scope down but cant seem to find any online? Do I have any other options?

    Do you know the model of the scope? I thought there was a way you could reset a scope.

      It just says Simmons Blazer on the scope, not sure if there are different Blazer models. It is a 3x9x40.

        Can it do anything with open sights?

          Sounds like the upper is ruined. You should throw it away or I will give you a few dollars for it.

              LOL. You don't even know if it shoots straight.

              Your scope is probably a piece of crap. Try switching the rings front to back, see if it's still "off" in the same direction.

                sometimes on those cheap scopes the reticle pin gets hung up, try loosening it (raise the adjustment screw out of the scope base) and then tap it with the back of your screwdriver to make sure it's following up. If that doesn't work remove the scope from your rifle and toss it in the trash. I suggest you get a laser boresight to save yourself some money.

                          I've been curious about that for a while too. This pretty definitively answers all my questions: http://www.opticstalk.com/leupold-ze...topic1630.html

                              has to be the scope, the lower has nothing to do with the alignment. There are 20 moa bases available for more adjustment for longe range use but I am pretty sure the scope is the problem......
