Hello all, first time poster to a forum that I have gathered a lot of info from over the past few weeks.
I think I can answer my own question and say it's a personal preference, but figured I would ask anyway.
My current rig is a Savage 10FCP in .308, 24" heavy fluted barrel with 5r rifling, accutrigger,accustock. I don't have a base for it yet, but I do have a SS 16x42 and some SWFA low rings waiting to go on. This is going to just be a target rig, 500 yards max.
I built one like this a while ago, and sold it earlier this year, it had an EGW one piece 0moa and I missed the rifle, so I bought a different one, this one has the 5r rifling.
Max shooting is going to be 500 yds. Would I benifit from a 20moa base, or just go with a 0? I don't think my 16x42 SS would bottom out with a 20moa base for a 100 yd zero.
