Consider a cantilever scope mount, as you will likely not see consistently good accuracy with any part of the scope mount on the handguard.
Also, regarding this:
If you shot A-max or SST after the Scirocco bullets, it's not surprising to me that accuracy suffered. While Scirocco bullets are good-performing game bullets, they tend to copper-foul a barrel quite quickly, wreaking havoc with any ammo that follows. I suggest cleaning the copper from the barrel before shooting again.
