[QUOTE="*WyoWhisper*, post: 40997"] Dave, Believe it or not I do understand what you are saying and you are basically correct.. ( can you believe I just said to Dave he is correct and I even understand it ) maybe in laymans terms... your scope when mounted on a 20 MOA base is basically pointed down.... your barrel is basically pointed straight or flat... if you would draw a line from you line of sight ( scope ) or point of aim.. and a line from you barrels trajectory those two lines would intersect at some point... now here's where it gets tough to explain... If you cant your rifle.. ( given you movemnet is perfectly pivoted around your rifle barrel ) you barrels trajectory is still pointed at the same place but your line of sight or point of aim is now actually looking at another point ( away from your original target )and now you move your entire rifle so that you're aiming at your original target... hence this is how cant will cause you to have bigger groups.. However slight at 100 yards but it becomes greater as the distances grow!.. keep in mind I did not factory in trajectory of the bullet or ballistics as I tried to keep it simple.. did that make any sense to anyone other than me... I am not the best teacher thats for sure.... [/QUOTE]
