[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1860708, member: 67552"] To the OP I always have a 100 yard reference. I use a few different methods depending on the gun and situation. I do have a couple rifles with ballistic reticles. They all start with a 200 yard zero and I verify all the marks at what is suggested to actual. I then use the longest range stadia at 100 to see if the math is close, backwards. I have 2 rifles I use for predator control on Walleye brood ponds where my shots 99% of the time are 365 and 430 yards and the rifles are zeroed to those ranges. Both of these get a lot of work from June thru September. These are on targets roughly the size of a cormorant and I periodically verify POA to POI at 100 yards as those guns travel a lot. My dial guns all zero at 240Yards and my walking guns all zero at 100. I am lucky enough to have a place I can set targets in an obstacle course to 500 so it is really easy for me to quickly run through verification on all my rifles. I do to lack of useable practice don't shoot game past 500. [/QUOTE]
