Scopes with 1/8 moa click adjustments are typically for target shooting and scopes with 30mm tubes usually have more MOA adjustment range than ones with 1 inch tubes. Note 38 MOA translates to 38 inches of adjustment at 100 yds. A .308 shooting 168gr bthp 2680fps zeroed at 200yds will be 50.7 inches low at 500 yds (5 in = 1moa at 500 yds) So to correct you need to adjust up 10 moa at 1/8 minute clicks thats 80 clicks up.
Thats a lot of clicks to dial in on the run , my guess is that you should be ok out to at least 500 yds - after that you will want a plus 20 moa base. http://www.snipercentral.com/308.htm |

Are you sure about the 1/8 moa clicks? Everywhere I have looked including Nikon's site says they are 1/4 clicks is this right? Model 6605 and the 6613

http://www.nikonsportoptics.com/product.php?group=16&sub group=10&product=6570 Nikon 2006 paper catelogue shows the mil dot model 6613 has 1/8 moa adjustment and all of the 6.5-20 scopes shown have the same. The one below has 1/4 moa adjustment and 40 MOA of adjustment

From the scope described above. The Nikon Monarch UCC Long Range scope 6.5-20x44 states. 1/8 moa "adjustment graduation" 38 moa "Max internal adjustment" Unless you are talking about a different scope? From what was posted.

You will probably need a canted P rail to shoot very far out with only 38 MOA of adjustment. That translates to about 19 MOA of "up".
One of the short comings of a 1" tubed scope is lack of elevation adjustments.
Really just depends on how far you plan on shooting, Sir.

Ok thanks everyone. I was just confussed about the 1/8 clicks. Nikon's site said it had 1/4 clicks. They emailed me and said that they were wrong.

It's a Bell and Carlson Varmint/Tactical Short action Medalist Style. Its a pretty damn good stock and it didnt cost an arm and a leg either. http://www.rifle-accuracy.com/medalst2.htm
The rifle is a Savage 10 fp in .308. |
