Do any of you digital scope experts know if the scopes have the same mounting requirements as normal scopes for long range shooting. Basically, do they need a 20 MOA base for shooting 500-1000 yards or does programming negate that need?
Day / Night Digital Scope 20 MOA base question

I cant speak to all digital scopes, but the ones I'm aware establish zero like most other optics and go from there.
Right. I am wanting to know if I need a 20 MOA base or not for long range shooting. I'm not going to zero it, then determine if I need 20 MOA or not.
I see what you're saying.
I would think if it's a digital optic where you turn the turret like with the Revic or Veracity PH, the 20 moa would contribute to additional travel.
In a scope like the Eliminator where the hold is displayed, it may not matter. I'm not sure if that optic will also allow you to dial.

I ordered an Arken Zulus HD520R. It does display the hold. The US version comes with a 0 MOA base. The UK version comes with a 35 MOA base, which i'm assuming is because it is being used on air rifles there. I guess thats one drawback of "newish" technology. There isn't a ton of data available yet.
Yeh, that's tough to say. Might have to put in a call to Arken.
Honestly the only thing slowing the development of these scopes down is technology limitations from states for hunting usage. I guarantee you there are companies developing this tech for the military. They are going to be far more common going forward.
