I have an older Rem Model 7 6mm Rem with one piece scope base with Charles Daly 3x9 scope. It is a nice scope, probably $300 - $400 many years ago. I have the adjustment at the max and it still shoots too high. I don't shoot it much and I remember it was sighted in correctly with factory ammo of 100gr soft points. I was shooting some reload 100gr Sierra soft points, non-boat tail, 4 different loads, none loaded near max, maybe 10% off max. Adjusted all the way in, it is still about 2-3 inches high at 100 yards. I screwed the adjustment screw all the way out and I don't see any problem.
Should I buy some special base? Try a different scope first? I wanted this to be my coyote gun, but I am pretty sure when I try lighter bullets, it is going to shoot even higher.
