I just mounted my new Nightforce Scope with the Eratac 20 moa mount on my Barret M82A1 50 bmg.
The scope is a Nightforce nx8 4-32 x 50 with a zero stop.
The issue I am having is at 250 yards…. With the elevation turret turned DOWN all the way I am shooting about 30 inches high. I am at lost of what to do as I cannot turn the elevation turret down anymore as it’s at the factory’s max specifications.
I loosely understand the purpose of the zero stop to allow for a quick adjustment back to a true zero. My question is if I have the elevation turret down all the way and THEN set the zero stop there…. Will that allow me to turn the elevation turret down even more than what’s on the factory setting now?
I just wanted some clarification before messing with the turrets and the zero stop.
I am just surprised that with a 20 moa mount that I am shooting 30 inches above the crosshairs at its lowest setting elevation wise.
