[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 242273, member: 4491"] jwp475 Dave, what scope did you have that tracked in a canted plane. wasn't mine, saw it happen at the range a few years ago. guy was bitchin and moanin about everything. he needed adjustable mounts and shims cause we could barely get his gun to hit on target. he was at the end of the turret travel and when adjusting up, the POI was also going to the left. i was trying to pursuade him to get different mounts but he was hell bent on the fact that it was bore-sighted and shouldn't have this problem. if i remember right, he was "pretty close" with both turrets cranked to the end of their travel. it was a Simmons scope. 4X, I agree with you 100%. the dots/extra crosshairs are for close to intermediate ranges and work very well with a hunting setup. i'm in the process of building a carry gun that i can be effective with out to 800. a least that's the goal. i plan on using dots. somewhere in this ballpark range and certainly farther cranking turrets is the only way to go.
