[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 110679, member: 1622"] [ QUOTE ] I agree that it will introduce an additional error, but I wouldn't call it cant error because the launch angle is the same. [/ QUOTE ] What?! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] The boreline has been further elevated in the Plane of the Cant...the fired QE has changed in direct relation to that; so has the azimuth....but this isn't cant error?! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] ...I think your thinking would be helped if you were to visualise the rifle being elevated about trunnions fixed horizontally through the chamber area. ....your initial scope cant causes the trunnion to be tilted at the cant error. Further elevation (holdover) takes place at that same trunnion tilt. That's me done.....JBM et al, you'll either accept that or you won't (which, of course, you are free to do [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I see this whole thing as a bunch of blokes debating stuff over a beer [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) .......this has been an interesting thread, it's made me think in detail about elements of theory I haven't considered in detail for over 10 years.....thank you all for that [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]! You'll all be pleased to know I'm not going to go 'around this buoy' again! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
