I recently zeroed a new Leupold VX 5HD scope. The max elevation adjustment is 37 MOA. I adjusted up 5 MOA while zeroing so my turret now stops at 32 MOA. Is this normal and is the only option an MOA base to gain this back?
Do you actually expect to be shooting at ranges requiring more than 37MOA of adjustment?I recently zeroed a new Leupold VX 5HD scope. The max elevation adjustment is 37 MOA.

You would be good to 1100 to 1300 yards pending on what rifle your shootingI recently zeroed a new Leupold VX 5HD scope. The max elevation adjustment is 37 MOA. I adjusted up 5 MOA while zeroing so my turret now stops at 32 MOA. Is this normal and is the only option an MOA base to gain this back?
The odds of needing more than 20 MOA are excessively remote as well.that's correct , sometimes you will dial down to get your zero , leaving more on top . a taller set of rings will require you to dial down to get your zero . different things will affect this .
I forgot about the ZL-2 turrets limit , I'm glad the other Fella mentioned that . if this didn't have the two turn limit , you could put a 20 moa rail on it , and also a 30 MOA rail would be no problem . in a perfect world a 40 MOA would work , but that's cutting it close . one thing with using the canted rails is it raises the back of the scope , this will mess with your cheek weld . you probably won't notice a 20 , but you will notice a 40 .
