Yeah I need to fix the buffer issue
Probably, do you have another buffer you can try? What is the gas length, barrel length and current buffer?
Disclaimer: I have no factually based experience for why I was asking the above questions. Take all advice given from me with a grain of powder. [LOL]
And to commiserate with you, I still haven't zeroed my Savage Mark II-FV tackdriver rifle. I'll mount the scope in the signature zee rings with adjustable inserts, get it zeroed, then decide I have no internal adjustments left, so I'll dismount my scope and use different ring inserts (it comes in -10, 0 and +10 moa that you can adjust the front and rear rings by, giving a total of 20moa of adjustment). Then I rezero and realize its perfect, but that I want to shoot at 100+ yds and I screwed up the zero again and then I use other inserts.
Interestingly enough, if I use +20moa inserts, I can not zero the scope at 100yds, which is very odd. If I had more .22 ammo, I'd go figure it out once and for all, but frankly, I'm running too low on that to care lol.
20MOA base/pic rail on rifle?Quote:

And I bought the medium rings that would give me about 0.090" clearance under the bell to the barrel, but if I get the 20moa rail, that will raise the scope bell up at least another 0.125", making that gap closer to 1/4"-5/16" than 1/8".Quote:

I was running Pmc brass 55gr. It's modeled after a DD rifle and their version comes with an H buffer so I'm going to give it a shot.
