wow..i agree..loose rings...either that yer x-hairs broke and maybe leanin?
although a ride in the truck might feel smooth, its a vibrating nasty situation for a scope..screws period at that.
align and tighten the scope back down..check all screws...hopefully ya wont have to make much of an adjustment from the old settings, but it should be a lil anyways..i would imagine the screws were never tight enough, and all that sighting in was all false...groups and everything....start from scratch!

Not necessarily loose rings. If it don't turn in rings, it's a floating reticule. Basically, it's TOAST if that's the case.
