at the risk of getting barked at, sometimes
if the windage and elevation adjustment on
a scope does not respond, you can lightly
tap it with a nylon or rubber hammer or a
dowel wrapped with cloth, etc.
sometimes, on different scopes, the reticle
will get stuck a bit and needs a bit of help.
could it be the gun is just not broken in yet?
maybe needs a major douche?
i,ve got filth out of a bore on friend's
guns before and they swore up and down
they were spotless.
