[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 666493, member: 17844"] What kind of rings or mount system do you have on the rail ? Did you measure the rail specs ? Try this, center the elevation turret by screwing it all the way in one direction gently feeling the end of adjustment point don't over screw it . Then screw back 130 clicks or you can count the clicks all the way from right up to right down and click halfway back to center . Then add 19 MOA of elevation and shoot at 1000 , make sure you are screwing it the right way and adding elevation and not subtracting it . That should put 39 MOA on the gun . The POI should come at least close at sea level and maybe be high at higher altitudes. I got a feeling you are screwing the elevation knob the wrong way . The base added 20 MOA and you subtracted a whole lot of MOA and then accounted for it with a 3 Mil of hold over on the Mil dot reticule . 3 mil at 1000 is 9 feet of hold over . [/QUOTE]
