[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 475610, member: 24624"] The major benefit is that it ensures you that you'll have plenty of elevation for 1k and that you'll be near the center of your adjustments at 1k so that you'll have maximum windage adjustment for long range. You will be slightly limited in your windage adjustment at close range where it's not a factor anyway. The forward cant is very slight and I have not had to change rings on any of my rifles including one with a 1.25" barrel. You can still use the fancy reticle without impairment when you wish to do so. And, I would caution against the idea of dialing part way and then using the reticle to get the rest of the way. I have found the EGW 20 MOA picatinny rail and Burris Tactical Elite Rings to be of excellent quality and value. The biggest advantage is that it becomes very easy to swap scopes between rifles. Good luck! Richard [/QUOTE]
