[QUOTE="orch, post: 1207219, member: 35688"] Hey there, With those two scopes you will probably need more than a 40 moa cant base to be able to dial all the way to 2000 yards , and with the vortex you won't be able to zero at 250 yards... If you stick with the 20 moa base and either of those scopes you can dial until u run out of adjustment and use the reticle to hold over the rest of the way... If my mental math is right you should be able to dial the Burris to 1750 from 250yards with a 40 moa base... Keep in mind that putting a lot of cant in your base will require you to zero your scope at the bottom of your adjustment and put you closer to the edge of lenses and further from the centre of the optics. I found when I did this with my pst it affected the optical clarity a bit, also got shadowing from the sunshade in the field of view when zeroed, it goes away when dialing up into the centre of adjustment when shooting at distance. Also in some scopes at the extreme ends of verticle adjustment you might find your windage adjustment is limited... Orch [/QUOTE]
