[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 552862, member: 5302"] With that setup, you'll have shots at 100 yards going 1 MOA left. As range increases with that much spin drift, the shots will be less to the left as target range increases and finally crossing the point of aim at 1000 yards. Are you going to correct for the windage error by canting the rifle a bit to the right for ranges less than 1000 yards. I don't think your 6.5-284's got that much spin drift. The .30-06 has about 6 inches at 1000 yards and it's angle of fall and total trajectory axis change is much more than your 6.5. So your 6.5 has to have less than 5 inches of spin drift. [/QUOTE]
