[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1334878, member: 12193"] I zero at 200 because I like being within 1.5" or so at closer ranges. Based on experience I'm more likely to yank a close offhand shot than a long shot over a rest, and if I'm sighted 4" high it might mean a wounded animal. Another part of this is estimating range - I will likely be ranging anything past 250 yards regardless of where I'm zeroed. And if I'm taking the time to range something I certainly have 2 seconds to dial my turret or just hold over a bit. The guns I hunt with most often have CDS turrets so its really quick to range and dial for the mid-range shots. [/QUOTE]
