    Scope repair help needed

    I’ve got a Nikko Stirling platinum 4-12x50ao gloss scope which I really like probably early 90s that I use on my feinwerkbau sport it’s in mint condition but the windage turret isn’t bringing the poi over to the right it’s going about 2” to the left, it worked perfect last time I used it but now can’t adjust it it’s definitely the scope as it’s doing the same on my longbow as well, so does anybody know how it can be fixed or if anybody can fix it for me
    Any help is gratefully received
    Thanks…Andy

    Scope Repair

    I believe Paul Burke is still doing scope repairs. Don't have his details to hand but I dare say another member will be along to provide them. Don't send it back to Nikko as they don't do scope repairs. If the repair is too much then place a wanted ad. Mach 1.5

    Has the gun/scope had a knock?
    There is a possibility that the erector tube has got out of alignment and is stuck on one side or other of the elevation turret "post". You could try winding the elevation turret all the way "up", then all the way "down" and then back to the centre - then see if the windage turret moves the reticle. From memory I did this with another brand of scope and it has worked OK again since then
