[QUOTE="Punisher, post: 1016443, member: 76832"] your scope has c. 100 MOA of total adjustment. or 50 MOA in each direction. if you go to a 60 MOA scope base, you will not have a 100 yard zero. you will be zeroed at 10 or 11 MOA... so about 5-600 yards. you would have to hold under on closer shots. i prefer to keep my rig simple and keep the sighting in process easy at 100 yards. have you run a ballistic calculator with a perspective load yet to see how much drop there is at the range you intend to be shooting? say hypothetically, 2000 yards is 75 moa of drop from the muzzle, and you have 50 moa of adjustment in the scope, so 75-50= 25 moa needed for scope base [/QUOTE]
