[QUOTE="el matador, post: 862851, member: 12193"] I guess I should have emphasized IMAGINE a little more :D The formula for exact scope cant error is a little complex but you can get a good approximation by multiplying your bullet drop in inches (assuming zero at 100) by the tangent of your cant angle. Example for 240 inches of drop, 5° cant angle: 240*tan(5°)=21" cant error. [/QUOTE]
