Details available if anyone needs them, but I've run out of scope elevation with my new Winchester Model 70 Classic LT. It shoots too low, and I've changed scopes (no change), rings (no change), reversed the two-piece Weaver mounts (no change), and shimmed the rear. The shim helped, but I'm still bottomed out. I have three questions.
1. What's the next step? Is there a standard way to shim a mount, maybe, or is there a fair-priced elevation adjustable mount? (I used B-Square for my air rifle, but I've seen some unenthusiastic comments about them here recently.)
2. What are the chances that my rifle will ever shoot well, given that the barrel doesn't seem to be aligned with the receiver?
3. Is this a warranty issue, or is this relatively standard and I'm expected to suck it up?
