[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1843531, member: 26227"] WAIT, Wait... something does not add up here.. I have a 20 MOA offset Badger Ord base on my 338 Lapua. I have MOA adjustments on my Leupold target scope. I had to adjust elevation DOWN below center to get a 100 yard sight in. none of this is adding up to me.. Winkfish. something is VERY wrong here. you should have more elevation than half your travel. do you have a 1" or a 30MM tube? if it is a 1"; you definitely need a 30MM, 34MM tube with 120 Mils adjustment or slightly more. Bud, I think your scope is bad or something is aweful wrong in this setup. I saw a guy in competition put his 20 MOA offset on backwards before.. sorry about the way this is phrased.. it took me completely off guard. Recheck your setup. I would suggest 30 MM or 34 MM main tube, ditch the talley rings I never trusted them, keep the 20 MOA offset base/rail, and check that Vortex for being bad. [/QUOTE]
