rarms Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 What make of scope is it? What adaptor are you using to mount it on your rifle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pestbry Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 What make of scope is it? What adaptor are you using to mount it on your rifle? its a mini Osprey from deben gen 1 and not using any adaptor straigth onto rifle? should a be using an adaptor? Thanks rams Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rarms Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 If it mounts onto your rifle the no it doesn't need an adaptor I would check the base of the scope, the mounting part of it is likely screwed/bolted to the tube part, see if there is any play in this join, or whether if the nuts were loosened the tube could be moved horizontally in relation to the mount. (i.e. you could move where the tube is looking in relation to the mount and thus solve your problem. I had this prob with an NV scope I had. It wasn't a Yukon though, it may have been my NS156 but I have a feeling it was the one I had before that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info much apre saving for an archer nv from starlight Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennyblanco Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 the mini ospey is designed to fit on to weaver rails (21.5mm? wide) and you have fitted it to 11mm dovetails so the barrel will look well on the **** through the scope. its stated that the built in mounts are universal this is ********, i am surprised you cant zero to the point of impact though as it should at least be parallel to the barrel even though its mounted 5mm to one side. when i had one i bought an 11mm dovetail-weaver adaptor with the down side of raising the nv 1/2", might be worth a look.
