Could mirage cause my POI to be as much as 9-10" high at 600 yds?

[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 150122, member: 2852"] [b]Re: Could mirage cause my POI to be as much as 9-10\" high at 600 yds?[/b] Saw this exact thing on a student's gun last year with that exact scope. The problem was: The scope dialed up the way it was supposed to through about 2/3 of it's travel then it suddenly started moving more than 1/4 moa after that and became more like 1/2 moa! Solution: Put several grid targets stacked vertically out at 100 yards and dial up and down on the grid with your crosshair and see if the value of a minute starts to change. And as Unc B said, mirage and other things all could play into this scenario too. [/QUOTE]
