What is the difference between 0 MOA and 20 MOA?

A 0MOA base is considered flat, or level with the bore of the gun. A 20MOA base is canted down in the front toward the barrel. By canting the base down in the front, this is what allows for more usable elevation adjustment in the scope.

What type of rail is on a tikka T3x?

Picatinny
This mount is a Picatinny-style base and compatible with Picatinny or Weaver scope rings.

What does 20 MOA cant mean?

20 MOA is generally used for shooting 500 – 1000 + yards depending on your scope and caliber. At 100 yards, one MOA is about 1″ (slightly more) The scope mount cants downward at 20 MOA, which will allow you to zero your gun at a greater distance.

What is a 10 MOA rail?

20 Degrees = 1200 minutes of angle, or 1206″ difference in point of impact at 100 yards. Now a 10 minute rail (MOA) shifts point of impact about 10.5″ @ 100 yards, while a 20 MOA rail shifts point of impact by about 21″ @ 100 yards.

What does a 30 MOA rail mean?

There are 60 minutes in 1 degree so 20 minutes is 20/60 or 1/3 of a degree. The rail forms a triangle with the action so for a 7 inch long rail the height difference will be: 7 inches * sine(0.33°) or about 0.0407 inches. For 30 MOA: 7 * sine (30/60) = 0.0611. for 40 MOA: 7*sine (40/60) = 0.0814.

Is a 20 MOA base necessary?

A 20MOA base is only needed for certain applications. When a shooter is adjusting the elevation dial on the scope for ranges longer than what the gun is zeroed for, at some point, they will run out of elevation in the scope. In many instances this is around 600 yards, give or take.
