Re: Rifle knocked out of aim--what to do?

If the groups only moved 6", you will not see the damage. I do not think the internals of the scope were damaged, I think the mounting hardware was altered ever so slightly. Again, it isn't enough to be noticeable, but it is there.

If the adjustment holds up, then that would be further evidence that it is not the scope, but indeed the mounting hardware, that is damaged.
