    Me too, I'm dying to know if I'm right! Probably why he hasn't replied because I am...

    Cmon smartie! Figure it out!

    (shakes head) math................
    Well the shim that I put in (about 0.015") will give me close to 15moa cant. That's pretty good, and after counting my scope clicks, I've got closer to 50moa internal adjustment, so I set it at 10moa from bottom giving me 40mo of up. Should be pretty good if it zeroes close to that.

    About 20/40 right now. The hard part is that I don't get any corrective lenses for them. I used to put on my (mega-thick) glasses and that would be that. Now I just gotta suck through the fuzziness....

    no more pain, though. I get stitches out soon! They are gonna have to put me out for that.

    Boom! A soda can gives about 15 MOA. I think I said that a couple pages ago.

    But I didn't use math. I just plugged it in there and shot a bullet to see where it goes. Then adjust from there.

    Belly, I'm glad your pain subsided, and that your stitches will be removed soon. Congrats on what seems to be a successful procedure for the goals expected?

    Yes, you did, and you were very right. However, that measurement is dependent on the distance between the two scope bases. So if you have a rail base that is 7" long, you will get less of a difference.
