[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 319717, member: 1007"] Lets not forget that the MOA value/inch relationship is different from 752 yards versus 800 yards. EXAMPLE 1 MOA at 752 yards = 7.87" 1 MOA at 800 yards = 8.38" Say a bullet trajectory is 124" at 800 yards at 0 degrees. If you add a 20 degree slope and it has a 12" cut it falls 112" @ 800 yards. The bullet still travels 800 yards even though it acts like it travels less. For your scope to work properly you still compensate for 112" at 800 yards. If you use the yardage it acts like on level ground youre screwed. This is where the extra 1.25 MOA is coming from. Clear as mud?? [/QUOTE]
