Dan does him no good . He is on this side of the border . If the scope is bad one shot get ahold of Peter at excalibur and send it in .

Compair scope mounting brackets on both xbows. The new one might have been manufactured with the screw holes drilled a little off from where their supposed to be, that would cause a big difference in your point of impact.

Also pull out the trigger assembly and make sure there is no bits of manufacturing waste causing the trigger group to sit higher in the stock that it should.

Make sure all screw are tight.

First of all, there should be no slop in the scope mount at all. You will never get it tight enough.

Second, the scope dial should not keep turning. It will stop when you are out of adjustment. If it keeps turning, you have a problem.

You don't want to go into hunting season with any problems like this.

If the dial is turning and the poi does not change the scope is broke. Plus turning no clicks. send it back it will let you down.If your going to keep the scope and use it. cut a shot gun hull to fit the bottom inside ring. place the scope back on tighten the rings this should work it could take 2 shims. If your hitting high.
