NF ATACR Zero Hold/Elevation Issues

[never.truly.lost]

Good day all,

I have a NF ATACR 4-16x42 that I just zeroed and set the Zero Stop/Zero Hold. With it set I am only able to get 13 Mils of elevation in the dial of the available 26 I believe? I realize with the Zero Hold I have 2 down and then whatever was taken up in the zero process; but with that I have seen most guys are still geting almost 2 revolutions in the 12 Mil dial and I am only getting one and a little bit.

Do I need taller rings to allow a different zero/more elevation available and re set the clutch?
For reference this scope is on a Savage Model 10 FCP-SR with the stock EGW rail and Med 34mm NF rings.
I was pretty sure the OEM rail (it is an EGW) was 20 MOA but maybe I am not remembering that correctly*

Any help is appreciated; I was also looking at getting a mount system to be able to transfer the glass between a couple of rifles so potentially that may be a solition but would like to know if I am missing something in the dialing process.

Thanks! And Happy New Year,
Andy

Do some digging but your scope rail is probably 0 MOA.

Thanks for this. I just compared it to an ATRS rail I have on my hunting rifle (20moa) and I think this must be the case; don’t know how I missed that just had assumed it was tapered.

Going to go with a new rail and a mount setup so I can toss it on a full length rail as well down the road.

ETA:
Rail is only marked “EGW SAV SA” with no moa marking

The first generation of FCP-SR (digital camo stock) has a 20MOA EGW rail. The second generation (black stock) has a 0MOA EGW rail.

Yes this is the older desert cam version; but it doesn’t “appear” to have a cant or taper to it like my other 20moa base.

I’d sure like an atacr 4-16 but with a moar t reticle
