[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 1947389, member: 17889"] Vertical adjustment in relation to the range and caliber ballistics is probably your point. Greater effective vertical adjustment can be had with an inclined rail or rings. Usually the scope is clearest with maximum resolution at the center of the lens. Adjusting to the extreme of scope travel puts sight through lens edge. Pre-angling the scope at sightin with rail/rings so the scope in the edge range of the lens, allows looking through more the center of the lens with adjustment for elevation needed for the actual shooting range. You will typically give up some clarity/resolution (yeah, high end scopes not as much...) at the edges. Better to have that loss at 100yds sight in than at your maximum shooting range. [/QUOTE]
