I have the Fast Fire III and the 336 Martin Base. Fits perfectly onto the gun and feels very solid. The problem comes when I try and put the site onto the base. The screw on the right side if you are looking through the site has seemed to strip and I cannot tighten the screw down at all.
I was sure to be very careful the first time and I did not think I went too hard or far as it never really stopped even with low pressure. It seems to strip for no reason. I emailed Burris and got another base on the away but being impatient I bought another base so I could have it faster. Well this 2nd time installing it just now the same thing happened and I was even more careful then the first time. Has this happened to anyone else? The screw on the left side has been fine on both bases and I have put even more pressure on it then the right seemingly stripped screw. None of the other threads have seemed to have a problem.
It is very frustrating because the sight looks great on the gun and while it looks like it may be aiming high even on the lowest elevation setting I have not yet taken it too range.
Once I do take it too range what yardage should I sight it in at? If I center my pattern at 40 yards will it be any higher or lower at say 15yds? What is the best way to sight in a 0 power reflex sight like this?
