[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 9385, member: 313"] 20 moa bases are typically used for shooting 1000yds while keeping the reticle optically centered (or there abouts) in the scope tube. If you do not intend on shooting very long distances with the .308 than I do not see any advantage to these bases. Most of the tapered bases are fairly tall so they may raise your scope height more than you expect. However, lower rings may work with the taller bases and still give acceptable height. I have 20 moa bases on rifles that have been shot at 100yds but this is certainly not ideal and may not work with scopes that have minimal verticle adjustment. Not sure on this though. VH [/QUOTE]
