[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 289723, member: 2736"] +1 When you increase elevation ,you increase windage error if the scope is not level with the bullet path. simply holding the scope level will not fix the problem. Place a piece of tape around the scope next to the scope ring and make a fine mark on the tape at the seam of the scope ring and then loosen the scope rings just enough to rotate the scope in the direction that you want to move the point of impact.(It won't take much) Re-tighten and shoot, it should have about the same vertical point of impact (No windage adjustments from 100 to 600yards).
