Is it just me or is your scope canted down towards the barrel? I thought bases with elevation built into them were supposed to slope upwards so you can dial in to shoot long range.



The Special long range elevation bases DO "tilt" the scope downwards to the rear to front, which by contrast RAISES the line of the bore in relationship to the line of sight....



Thanks, that makes sense now. I've never been into the long range thing, so I honestly didn't know.

I'm not into big and heavy scopes, but I do have a Nightforce 2.5-10x32 that I've used on a couple of guns and is going on a 6.5x55 Blaser R8. I got it for the illuminated reticle and velocity reticle, both of which work very well.
