Hello,
I have a Vortex Golden Eagle HD on my .300 Win Mag. If my scope has a maximum Elevation of 55 MOA, does the 20 MOA picatinny rail give me up to 75 MOA?
If I twist the elevation turret nob down until it bottoms out, does having 20 MOA rail as opposed to a 0 MOA rail mean I will have fewer clicks up when zeroing to 200 yards? I'm trying to figure out how the 20 MOA rail gets me to 75 MOA or is this wrong thinking? If my scope is limited to 440 clicks in elevation which equals 55 MOA, how can I hit a target at 1500 yards if the required DOPE is 468 clicks in elevation?
Thanks in advance for your feedback and explanations.
Chuck
