New scope

Tall target test is to make sure that it's absolutely level. Even a small amount of cant at say 1000 yards can really throw you off. You can also at least vertically test tracking at the same time.

Thanks for the info

The scope should be optically centered from the factory. I'd mount it, get your eye relief adjusted, level the scope, then tall target test box test it what ever to confirm that it's level and you can then check tracking accuracy too.

Be advised moa = 1.047" at 100 meters so in your tall target test if you dial up 10 moa you will be 10.47" and if you dial up 20 moa you will be at 20.94"
Mil is easy 1/1000 of your distance. Yards = 3.6" Meters = 3.9" per mil at 100 yards/meters.

I sat this because in a review on a burris scope a guy claimed that scope was not tracking because at 10 moa up is was off a half inch and at 20 moa up it was off nearly an inch. he was to stupid to know that 1 moa is not exactly 1" at 100 yards.

Thanks for that.
