[QUOTE="ChrisH56, post: 1927170, member: 114659"] I have seen shooters create targets that are set up with specific MOA or Mils spacing to test their scopes without shooting (similar to a tall target test target). Plumb the target at 100 yards and then mount your rifle in some way (lead sled, etc) to hold it in a level (plumb) position. Align your reticle with the center line of the target and at the top of the target. Then turn your elevation knob and see if the center of your cross hairs stay on the plum line of the target as it moves up and down. If off, you can then rotate your scope to align with the plumb line of the target. At the same time you can move your elevation a specific amount of MOA or MILS to correspond to the marks you set your target up with to see if your scope tracks correctly. I hope I have explained this correctly......sometimes it is hard to explain what you are thinking. [/QUOTE]
