[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 450988, member: 8873"] 1 moa @ 100yards is basically 1.047". But when you dial in for some distance it can/will start to make a difference. The further out you go the more that .047 makes a difference. When testing the scope place a yard stick exactly 100yards out and get it perfectly level. Then place your rifle/scope in a vise (leveled) with the reticle at the top of the yard stick. I had to add colored stickers to the yard stick and white paper behind it to make it really stick out. If you adjust "up" 36 moa it should be 37.7" or 1.7"below the bottom of the stick. I use another person to mark exactly where the reticle stops as I am looking through it. Then repeat it about 10 more times to make sure the adjustments are repeatable.
