[QUOTE="mountainman56, post: 1828051, member: 79106"] It's simple geometry really. Given your high mounts your line of sight is probably around 2" above your line of bore. If you bring the line of sight and line of bore together at 25' and you continue on that path for another 275' to get to a 100 yard target your bullet will be hitting 22" high (less whatever drop your cartridge has at that distance). I would dial it down 20 moa and head to the range. [/QUOTE]
