My 30-06 currently has see-thru mounts on it so that I can also use the irons. from what I understand this would have a negative effect in the MOA. Am I understanding correctly? Or is it just a matter of there being a point were the point of aim and point of impact intersect? It would seem to me that the greater the difference between the center of the scope and center of the bore= smaller "sweet spot".
I woods hunt so I sight in at 100yds and figure I am good between 30-200yds. I think I need to do some research with this particular rifle and see how and where the bullet changes from an upward trajectory to a dropping trajectory.
165 Sierras BT from a 30-06 carbine. Any idea where I should start to look?
