MMACFIVE Report post Posted November 19, 2015 As mentioned above I don't think rifle cant changes anything. Just scope cant. You essentially can shoot a gun upside down. It all comes down to the path of the bullet in flight. Basically we all account for the bullet going straight up and down as it moves down range (as the diagram above shows before canting the gun AND scope). You can achieve that like I said "upside down" if you like. Think of your vertical post in the scope as the up wards movement of the bullet until it reaches the highest point in its trajectory. Any ways doesn't matter how you hold the gun as long as your scope is level! Becker is absolutely correct. A rifle does know if it is canted or not. It only matters if the scope is sighted in level and held level for all shots. Remember the barrel actually oscillates, or moves in a circular motion when it is fired. With a "good load" we are just catching the bullet exit at the same position of the barrels motion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5guyshunting Report post Posted November 19, 2015 Good example of two sights. Scope is leveled with a level rifle, not to be used with a canted rifle. Red dot is used for close shots.Here is about as honest of a test as you could get.
