What scope, base, and zero. I'm running out at 1670 yards

[Bob L.]

I was curious what scope you guys are using who shoot at or over 2000 yards.
If you don't mind sharing your setup rifle ie base, scope, and zero. Curious what scope has the most adjustment on the market in MOA etc.
Thanks

A Leupold Mark 4 16x has 140 MOA. Matt

Easiest way to help yourself is to run a canted base ...several maker's out there from 10 to 60 moa. If you really want to push it add a 30 moa american rifle company mount.
Several scope manufacturers out there with 100 to 120 moa
vortex and nightforce come to mind.

One thing to be considered is that you may not be able to zero at 100 with a big canted rail and base.

On my 300WM with a 20MOA base, I have enough dial in the scope (75MOA) to hit 2000 yards using my ATACR. There is also 20MOA in the reticle. Switching to a 40MOA rail would get me to 2300 yards with dial+reticle.

Both of my ATACR scopes have more than 130MOA of adjustment in them.

ATACR with my 20MOA base ends up on my gun having 86 MOA left in it from a 100 yard zero. Further than the gun it's on will shoot.

My NXS has a 20MOA base and I am running Burris Signature Zee's that add 20MOA more and I have 79 MOA left in that gun while maintaining the 100 yard zero.

My NF Competition has a 20MOA rail and I still have 49MOA left that gets me out too 1435 yards.

I'm running a 60moa base, and plan on running a Vortex Razor at some point soon, I hope. That will give me a 100 yard zero and still be able to dial to around 2400 yards, plus 10 mils of holdover under the reticle to get me around 2700.

Burris Signature Z rings can get you an additional 20moa you can add or subtract at will and they leave no ring marks on the scope. I use them on a 300RUM and they hold solid.............gun)......................................

 

[Bob L.]

For some reason the Burris z rings didn't hold up to my edge.
I have a Mark V 6-20 with a 20 moa base, 100 yard zero, and running out before 1700 yards. I know I can do a 300-400 yard zero, but I just do not think the Mark V has enough internal adjustment. That is one reason I was curious what everyone's setup is.

I was just out at the range today and mounted a Gen2 on the 338 lapua. With a 20moa base, medium vortex rings I can dial 21 mil with 10 mil holdover at current environmental I can run to 2400yds.

 

[BMcKell]

I have an Atacr and run a 60 moa base. I use a 100 yard zero and can dial out to 2800 yards with my 300 Norma improved.

I've not used one, but the Ivey rings sure look promising as a solution. Check here:

I use a NF NXS and have about 76 MOA with a Stiller Action 20 MOA base. I think a 40 MOA base would be much better if you want to use most of your elevation. I just shot out to 1774 yards last week and I had 55.25 MOA (at about 5000 feet elevation) If you are at sea level you will need more MOA to shoot that far. When I go back to Fresno I lose about 200-350 yards because of the extra drag/"thicker air".
If you want to shoot that far use a NF or top tier scope. Your life will be much easier.
Good luck

Horus Falcon with H-37 reticle (has +4 mil elevation in the reticle) and Burris Signature Zee rings adjusted to 20moa. Zeroed at 100 meters. Works like a champ. Best part is instant shot recognition and followup if required, no dialing of knobs, and reticle beyond max rifle wez and shooter skill range (working on it!). Rock solid system on an EGW zero MOA base.

Nightforce 40 moa base and ATACR MOA scope will fix yours needs...Scope has 120moa (really 126 in mine) plus 30 in reticle and 40 in base.....thats a lot of up for anyone
