1" or 30mm scope?
In the front ring put your - insert on the bottom and a + insert on the top. In the back ring + insert on the bottom - insert on the top. If you have greater than -5 +5 inserts, use them. That way you should get your scope operating nearer its optical centre thru the range you wish to shoot. The very worst (unlikely) that could happen is you may have probs getting a 100yd zero (highish) but at least you will have lots of elevation for those 1500yd shots.
