I then fitted some
Sportsmatch reach fwd/back mounts but these had close to 2" lateral shift from 20yds to 150yds,
I then fitted
Hawke match mounts these were better but still had almost an inch of lateral shift over the same range,
I then fitted BKL mounts which showed no lateral shift with increasing/decreasing range.
Since then I have only ever used BKL mounts on dovetails.

or for those who only plink in the garden always at the same fixed range, they will have no idea that at twice the range the POI will be way off.
