I mounted a new scope and rings on my Henry .22 lever. The receiver has a dovetail groove for the scope. The scope would not track to the left at it's extreme adjustment limit. The closest I could come to bullseye at 25 feet is 4 inches to right.
Moving the rings and scope to a new Savage 22 rifle, the scope adjustments were close to center of their limits.
I'm beginning to believe my Henry's barrel is not pointed in the same direction as my receiver.
Maybe a gunsmith has some way of checking this alignment?
Prop the barrel and butt stock between two rests and sit on the left side?
