    Rifle Scopes The importance of correct leveled scope.....or not...?

    Cant is angular not linear. A 5 degree cant at 100 yards is the same as a 5 degree can't at 1000. A better comparison is MOA. 5 moa is .08 degrees at 100 yards and 1000. The apparent drop only happens linearly due to gravity as you move away from that angle.

    Rifle Scopes The importance of correct leveled scope.....or not...?

    Yes you are correct. If you have your 3mm offset in the diagram but then hold the rifle vertical thus creating a 3mm canted reticle you will have drift because the elevation erector is not true to gravity. if you take that same setup but hold the rifle with the 3mm of cant thus making the...

    Rifle Scopes The importance of correct leveled scope.....or not...?

    your drawing is misconstrued. The scope is not canted to the bore unless a canted base is used. they both are parallel or as close as the machined action, base, and rings can allow. The reticle through windage and elevation adjustments moves to match the rifles poi.

    Rifle Scopes The importance of correct leveled scope.....or not...?

    Incorrect again. Bullets only go straight they can't go right to left unless affected by wind. It is the reticle that moves to the bullet via the erector assembly.

    Rifle Scopes The importance of correct leveled scope.....or not...?

    that is false. The bore line is its own seperate axis as is the scope. The reticle moves within the scope body on the erector assembly to match the bores poi, not the entire scopes axis. The two remain in constant parallel as they are rigidly connected with the scope rings. The 1" offset never...

    In diagram B assuming erector tube is true to the reticle how would there then be any drift or offset? Straight up is straight up regardless how the rifle is canted if that cant stays consistent.

    reloading books

    To start off I'm new to reloading. Recently acquired Hornadys single stage press kit. I finished reading the book and it was very interesting. I'm looking for more books or online articles to basically just gain more knowledge. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance
