[QUOTE="Buck Fever, post: 1948075, member: 113501"] Most scopes have more than 40 MOA internal adjustment so using a 20 MOA sloped base is a pretty safe thing to do. Theoretically it gives you half the internal adjustment plus 20 MOA of drop from zero and should let you dial in a lot of range. Don't get too hung up on muzzle velocity and drop. For target shooting, a slower moving, high ballistic coefficient bullet can do very well at long range and won't wear out a barrel as fast. [/QUOTE]
