I have a bushnell 4 to 12 on a little 222 and everytime i make say a windage ajustment the damn thing then moves the impact ''up'' so i wind down the elevation and then it will move ''left'',and etc etc never ending ! should i dump this thing in the can ? i never had a scope that did this

Are you saying that the windage adjustment adjusts the elevation and the elevation adjustment adjusts the windage?

If that's the case I have to ask the obvious...are you sure the scope is mounted properly, and are you sure you are turning the correct knobs?

yes it is mounted correctly ! i have a chinese made bushnell as well, a 4 power that looks a lot like an old tasco and its umm a clearer scope than this jap made bushnell !

I think this is likely to happen if the reticule is way over due to mis-alinement to the barrel.
The micro-track ads, (Redfield is it?) show how it happenes.
