    I recently bought one from Numrich and I am sending it back as the reticle is canted a few degrees off which is very noticeable to me. I don't know if this was an unlucky defect or if they are generally expected to be made this poorly. I can't speak for it holding zero as I never had a chance to shoot with it.

    WE addressed this problem As being your after market scope mount, if you had a original scope installed in your mount the post will be canted . I have the same Gun Parts scope and when installed in one of my original No. 4 Mk. I snipers the post is not canted . When I place the scope from the original sniper in the after market mount the post is canted . It can be fixed with out too much work on the mount . Gun Parts scope is , at lest the one I received, is of excellent quality and workmanship .

    I'm still not 100% convinced this is the case with mine. When holding the scope up by hand I can see the bottom alignment screw is not aligned with the vertical post of the reticle. I can only assume that it should be. I have some new items coming in the mail that will allow me to test this. I'll give some additional feedback when it arrives.
