Need some schooling here.
On a gun with a 20 MOA scope base, and a scope that has 60 inches of elevation adjustment at 100 yards, what is the max adjustment that can be made at 400 yards? 800 yards?
Take 1/2 of the 60 inches of elev. adj. (30) and that's what I can adjust "up" at 100 yards, 60 inches at 200 yards...right?
How does a 20 MOA base factor into this? 20 MOA of elev. at 100 yards, 40 MOA at 200 yards?
Thanks

Does a 20 MOA base add 20" of elev. adj at 100 yards? And 40" of elev.adj. at 200 yards?
