[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 200032, member: 951"] ok you have 56 MOA of elevation, range is 600 yards, trajectory is -58" so, lets do this 58" / 1.047 (moa)/6 (range in hundreds of yards) = MOA elevation needed 58"/1.047= 55.4 (rounded up slightly) 55.4/6=9.23 So it would take 9.25 MOA (37 1/4 moa clicks) to make zero at 600 if your -58" low, each click would move your point of impact 1.57" (1.047/4= .26175x6=1.5705") at 600 yards (1.57x37= 58.09"), so yes 56 MOA of elevation is plenty to make a 600 yard zero. RR Remember you not just raising the bullet, your changing the bullets angle of departure so the POI is going to move more as the range increases. so those 56 MOA of adjustment will change the POI 351" at 600 yards if you turn the scope all the way up.
