[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 469222, member: 319"] I hate to break it to you, but if none of the scopes you checked had any cant, you aren't checking accurately enough. Even very high quality scopes have a tolerance, and if you measure a bunch of them they will not all be 0.00 degrees on the nose. Much the same with click value--with many manufacturers having a +/- 2% tolerance, if a guy says all of his many (especially lower end) scopes are exactly right on, it means he isn't measuring accurately. In better news, don't worry about the guys on the SERT team. They should never be shooting at ranges where any of this matters. This stuff becomes meaningful at long range when large elevation inputs are required. [/QUOTE]
