[QUOTE="dzander, post: 1219074, member: 95376"] 1 minute between shots, 43.4 grains of Varget, normally groups within .500". 168grain Berger VLD hunting Bullet. Lapua Brass, Federal 210M primer. Runs at 2706 FPS from my Savage Model 10. It was windy when I shot this target. It was Swirling and changing directions. Thanks for the video of the tall target. I don't have a level on my scope, and I didn't have a target with the vertical line. Found it interesting in the video that it was only shot at 30 MOA. So the assumption is if the scope is on at 30 MOA Its correct in between the zero and 30 MOA? My Idea was zero my gun at a given yardage, probably 300 yards. Then Laser my target, use a ballistic table with a 300 yard zero, and dial my scope based on the table. I'm not shooting out to 1000 yards or anything, maybe 550 yards max and in from there. Will be hunting mule deer and antelope in Montana this fall. Since the scope doesn't track exactly right I guess I could shoot at targets at say 25 yard increments above and below the 300 yard zero and record the turret settings. I am new to this , it seems the more i look around it's fairly common problem that scopes don't move exactly the same amount as there dialed. I don't really understand why this is the case. I assume there is a screw in the scope with a precision thread on it and I would have thought this wouldn't be so difficult. There obviously more to these scopes than I understand. I can buy a level, sure up a target and try again. And I can get to the range when there is less windy conditions. Thanks Dave Z [/QUOTE]
