Right now I am using SS10x42, Millet 2 piece base and Millet angle lock high 30mm rings. My 100 yars zero is at 75 MOA on the scope. Today I ordered a SS10x42HD. I am thinking of using a 20MOA base.Would that just bring my zero at 100 yards to 55 MOA.I also know the new scope is MIL & not in MOA. My rings are also a little high. I will be getting MED. rings
 
Re: 20 MOA Base

What gun do you have it mounted on? You should be able to use low rings.

If you get a 20 moa base then it should give you more up elevation travel. The 10X HD have well over 30 mils of travel. With the 20 MOA base that will be more than a .308 will ever need.
 
Re: 20 MOA Base

I had low IOR rings and a 30moa Seekins base on mine. And I have a huge Lilja barrel. You should be just fine with lows. If you go TPS you could go super low.
