Rifle Scopes Base Mount MOA

[John B.]

Hi,

What does “MOA” refer to when picking out a base mount? I’ve seen some with 0, 20, etc. I’m looking at a Badger Ordnance base mount for my rem 700, not sure what brand to choose for the rings.

Best regards, John

It's the amount of incline the scope base has. This usually get's you more out of your turret elevation but depending on the scope could also be too much, so you have to pair it accordingly.
