[QUOTE="SpeedGoatShooter37, post: 1614574, member: 98673"] Another overlooked item is getting the scope on level. If it’s not on level, you’ll impart windage error when you change your elevation dial, meaning as you track up or down in elevation, the POI will also start moving left or right in addition to the up and down as you change the elevation. Minor at less than 200 yards, but gets exponentially worse as the range increases. A good way to make sure your scope is on level is to do a tracking test. Zero your rifle, then run up the elevation 4 or so MOA. As long as the next shots are falling directly above your zero point, your scope is level. [/QUOTE]
