[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 3498238, member: 35036"] My understanding (and I hope someone corrects me if I am wrong) is that you typically need a higher cant rail or rings if you’re trying to stretch out further than the scope will typically reach. If you’re trying to use a 10-30moa rail, typically you’ll be fine. Your short range adjustment/holds may be a little off. If you’re using a 20moa rail, then at 100 yards, your point of aim will be roughly 20 inches higher than a 0 moa rail. This affords you extra adjustment for drop if you’re trying to sent that little rimfire a long ways off and if you buy a scope that doesn’t have a ton of adjustment. [/QUOTE]
