[QUOTE="Wyodog, post: 1128395, member: 51310"] MOA bases absolutely can have an impact on this situation. Its just geometry and it is real. If you measure scope height in wrong place it will drew up your ballistic program. To prove this measure your scope height at the back of the scope and front of the scope. You will get a different measurement. However if you measure scope height where the crosshairs are the 20 MOA base will not matter. Also the wrong scope height can have a pretty significant effect on downrange impact. Another issue can come into play if the 200 yard zero is really "zero". If you are slightly high at 200 yards this will carry through there rest of the yardage. In other words 1\4 MOA high at 200 or worse yet 1/2 MOA, wild change the ballistic curve completely. It is important to put the exact zero into your program. [/QUOTE]
