I didn't think the angle was enough to effect the shot either and it very well could have been the elevation. I was set up for a bit higher(elevation) and didn't think that it would have an effect on minute of elk at that range. I was using a cut turret that has served me well in the past. I also use an moa turret and the shooter program if I have time to mess around with inputs. As for my lack of posts, I have learned quite a bit reading on here but have alway's hesitated to post much.
