[QUOTE="vendetta333, post: 538705, member: 35065"] yes the holding low on closer shots was what i was getting at. if one is going for a first round hit, wouldn't you first dope, then adjust, then take the shot. if you missed the shot and could see this, then wouldn't that be the correct place for a hold over. if you need a rapid follow up shot, like in hunting, or actually in combat, or in timed comp. like i said, i'm mostly interested in competition, out past my max (around 400). but my rifles are sighted at 100 (i live in GA :D). but for the eventual comp i want to do, and the elk and antelope hunting i plan to do as well, i'm wondering if i should sight out to 200? i know a 100yd zero will do, just require more clicks, but i don't want to have to hold a mile under a 500yd zero if i end up stalking within ears shot of a trophy in the field. thoughts?
