[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 785362, member: 11717"] A hypothetical math example. Scope is plumbed and rifle is canted say about 10 degrees. Scope is mounted 2" above center line of chamber. At 10 degrees right cant let's say the center of chamber (and bullet) are 0.2" left of center of scope. Our zero is @ 100 yds. When fired, the bullet travels right in relation to the line (plain) of sight to converge on the zero point. At 200 yds, the bullet has now gone from 0.2" left of line of sight to 0.2" right of line of sight. At 300 yds the bullet is now 0.4" right of LOS. At 1000 yds, the bullet is 1.8" right of LOS. Not a huge deal. If we move the zero out to 200 yds, the effect is smaller. At 1000 yds the bullet would be 0.8" right of LOS. [/QUOTE]
