I recently purchased a Remington 700 VS in .308. I added the Badger Ordinance 20 moa 1-piece mount with medium rings, and the Nightforce 8-32 x 56 NXS scope. My problem is that it takes approximately 30 moa elevation change to get my zero at 100 yards, and I run out of elevation before I get to 1000 yards. The rings are lapped with Sinclair's tool.
Do I go to a 40 moa 1-piece mount like Nightforce offers, or has anyone else run into this problem. A friend of mine has the same set-up, but he has the 5.5-22 x 56 scope. He has the same problem. We both think that 28 to 30 moa is a great deal of elevation to have to dial into the scope just to get to zero. Any help would be appreciated.
