Making Precise Windage
And Elevation Adjustments
The style of elevation and windage adjustments on Leupold riflescopes
varies with specific models. Each, however, is clearly marked in easy to read
increments. If, for example, there are four hash marks from zero to (and
including) the number one on an adjustment knob, then the value of each
increment of adjustment on that knob is 1/4-MOA. It is the same with all
Leupold adjustment dials. One-MOA moves the point of impact at 100 yards
by 1 inch. At 100 meters, it moves 29mm.
The letters found on the windage and elevation dials refer to the direction
that the point-of-impact of the bullet is moved when an adjustment is made.
