[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1334483, member: 97196"] All of my LR rifles zeroed at 300 yards. I prefer to establish group size at 300 so I just zero it in at that distance. Been doing this for years and has been very effective in taking large game. Essentially 4" high at 100 yards and 4" low at 350 for most of my rifles. Took a young hunter out last year who had a 360 yard shot on a coues deer and a short window to take it due to fog cover. Told him to aim high on the shoulder and he dropped it as soon as he could set the bipod and get on it. If sighted in at 200 yards you are close to 4" low at 280 and 10" low at 350. 300 yard zero seems to provide a reasonable reference within the range most of our shots are taken. We can generally close within 350 yards before taking a shot. Bottom line, become proficient with the system that works for you. [/QUOTE]
