[QUOTE="Dragoon300, post: 2514496, member: 115285"] The answer to the original question is simple, NO! Never! Absolutely not! Do not add any intentionally induced variables to an already complex equation with expectations of getting a quicker solution! Select the best rifle, optic and mounting system for your application that you can afford. Have the optic and mount installed by a competent person if you are not qualified to do so yourself. Mount your optic with its reticle as vertically aligned as possible. Install a level on your rifle and use it. Zero at 100 yards or meters, which ever you prefer. Know the velocity and ballistics of your rifle and ammunition. Have a proven ballistic calculator, environmental instrument and rangefinder, and know how to use all of them. With proper instruction in the fundamentals of marksmanship, and further instruction in long range precision shooting you may be able to hit your desired target. With practice, experience and the right circumstances you may be able to take some short cuts to make certain shots, but first of all know know your equipment well, and the basic fundamentals.
