[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 798320, member: 35183"] The problem you are facing is that you have to zero the scope somehow. I also assume that the scope was probably not designed to crank back and forth on the turrets in the first place. You can easily use up half of the adjustment just getting the scope zeroed with a "normal" installation. If you do some back tracking on this forum you will find lots of people posting that they mounted their 50MOA scope on their rifle and then ran out of travel trying to zero it. Now clearly that is NOT normal. This for example [url=http://www.opticsplanet.com/burris-3x-9x40mm-fullfield-ii-ballistic-plex-e1-riflescope.html]Burris 3x-9x40mm Fullfield II Ballistic Plex E1 Riflescope FREE S&H 200320, 200446, 200322. Burris Rifle Scopes.[/url] is a scope with 50MOA of adjustment, fairly decent reticle, you can use it on a 20MOA base (which allows you to theoretically to use 50/2 = 25 + 20 = 45MOA usable travel).
