Sanity Check: 20MOA Cant Mount with Sig Sierra3BDX (40H/40V MOA adj)

[MegaHurtz]

Mhz,

Unfortunately you cannot change the angle of a scope by dialling the turrets. You can only change it by using an external angled mount.

Yes, the most efficient way to use the limited elevation in that scope is to mount the scope so the closest target appears in the middle when the elevation is dialled all the way to the end. Then you have the full 40MOA of the dial for all the further ranges. 40 is all you've got. If you want more you will need to come off the crosshair and use the reticle stadia lines (as long as your reticle has MOA stadia lines)

Copy on using canted mounts for scope angle changes - the Burris rings' inserts do enable this.

Thanks for affirming my suspicions on the approach to zero with reticle at the bottom stop, to enable use as detailed. As an fyi, the scope can be setup with BDC-ish rigid stadia 'lines' (actually illuminated oleds). That will help with the longer ranges once i get it dialed to the other stop.

Thanks again, for your time and counsel, as I travel down the path of getting smarter.
