[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 1205037, member: 2567"] I watched Brian Litz's video on doing a tall ladder test for scope tracking verification. I went to the range and set up 4 feet of vertical paper and drew a line with a sharpie while using a 4 foot level. I put a target dot at the bottom of the line. I center punched the target dot and dialed 30 moa up on my scope. Next shot, text book right on the line. Center to center of the shots was 31 7/8, goal was 31.70, scope is good! I brought a shooting bench with me that I borrowed from a friend and set it up at 985 yards. My G7 called for 23 moa, I dialed and held about 5 inches right for wind and let two shots fly. One shot was directly in line with the bull and about 5 inches left (needed a little more for wind) and the other shot was also about 5 inches left and about 8 inches high. Someone else showed up at the range, so I couldn't shoot from the far location so I moved up to the main shooting line and took two shots at 690 yards and put both of them in the black. I used the dope from the G7 again without any variance. I guess the problem disappeared! [/QUOTE]
