I have an Athlon Cronus BTR 4.5-29 scope that I'll be putting on a new Tikka T3X CTR in 6.5 creedmoor. The scope has 32 mils of elevation adjustment. I understand that you can add cant under your scope up to a little less than half your total scope elevation range, giving you almost the full range of elevation adjustment in your scope for ELR. In my case, this would be a 50 MOA base (rounded down from 54.88 MOA). But, I've read this could degrade image quality on some scopes.
First, does anyone know if this would degrade image quality on the Athlon Cronus, specifically?
Second, if you think you have just enough elevation adjustment for your realistic max shooting distance, should you just leave it at 0 MOA cant (does that give you the best image quality), or does something in between yield the best image quality (ex. 20 MOA)?
Thank you.
