[QUOTE="topbrass, post: 630424, member: 23611"] How many mils do you have on your reticle above and below the horizontal center? You may not need more than 20moa base if you can dial in a zero close to the bottom of the turret and have your reticle zeroed at 300. Then you use the mils on the top of the reticle for under 300 if you need to be precise. If you want more elevation and are not bottomed out on your turret, then make the zero on your horizontal center a 400 yd zero. Many scopes will not work with a 30moa base and have a 100 or 200 yd zero because there is not enough internal adjustment. Then you will need to use your reticle to get to the closer elevations and zero at 300, 400, or 500 for the long shots out past 1000. With the scopes mentioned a 20moa base will work [/QUOTE]
