[QUOTE="KDB, post: 324330, member: 18510"] PHIL-243...Just out of interest, what did you decide on for your ring/base combo? MMMooretx...For about 90% of applications adding 20MOA is more than good to 1000yds. Unless you are shooting something that is heavy and slow. If that is the case, then it is not good for longrange. I don't understand what you are trying to ask, but I can tell you that I have a 30MOA base and warne low rings for my Black Diamond 8x32-50 on my 300 Ultra Mag, and my zero is set at 600yds. I am 8 clicks from bottoming out my vertical at 600yds. For my scope to benefit for the 30moa base and be in the optical center; my ZERO should be closer to 900yds. Unless I am unaware, which is possible, the only ring setup that allows you to cant your scope is burris (I forgot the name of them), but it's the ones with the inserts. Otherwise, it is strictly a base thing. Your best bet is to go with 20moa one piece base made by any name mentioned earlier in the post. With 1/4 click scope and 20 moa base. you should be able to be on paper at 200 and still be able to dial it up to 1000. [/QUOTE]
