Hi,

I tried my new Redfield Revenge 6-18x44 on my .243 today. I have had a big problem getting the vertical adjustment any where near the target. I use a homemade target printed on a letter sized card.

At the end of trying, I had the scope adjustment wound all the way up, aiming the fat part of the lower post level with the top of the card and the bullet was striking 1" up from the bottom of the target.

It's almost like having ultrahigh rings on the rear and std height on the front. Is there a major adjustment to compensate for this error or have I got a piece of junk?
