Strelok and 20 MOA Scope base

[Shooterjoe]

I have a 308 long range rifle using the Strelok app...question...the rifle in question has a 20 MOA Scope base on it and is wrecking the Strelok range values...other than reverting to a zero scope base or manually get the ranges shots is there a trick or math that would help me here...thanks in advance...

The 20 moa base only adds 20 moa to your current elevation from a static point.

Example:
With a 34 mil turret, you zero your rifle and end up twisting the turret 3 turns (5mil per turn) to hit at 100 yards.
This means you have 15mil wasted from total elevation, leaving you with 34-15=19mils.
Plenty to go around, but we want to increase that to 25 mils of scope elevation.
So we install a scope rail or mount that gives 20moa / 6 mils and zero again.

Now we have that 25mils of available elevation.
But the ballistic app does not mind any of that.

It just gives the elevation and does not care if your scope can or cannot do that.

When previously when it gave 25 mils, you'd have to hold with reticle. Now with the 6mil added, you can just dial it all.

Most apps cover your canted rail (or lack thereof) in the scope height input.

Center of bore to center of optic covers it.
