[QUOTE="azarcher10x, post: 2931792, member: 57286"] I'm not any kind of a long range target shooter, but I want the best accuracy for hunting to the maximum capability of my cartridge choice. That's where I test for accuracy. In my case, it's 800- 900 yards for my 300 RUM. I use two apps for my ballistic calculations. Ballistics Arc and the Zeiss Hunting App to sync to my binos for hunting. I don't worry about BC, other than inputting the manufacturers estimate. I do the basic weather inputs, but then go off the absolute pressure from my rangefinder. (Zeiss RF binos) I would recommend a 100 yards zero, and you can then do a tall target test for peace of mind. I have yet to find a scope that didn't pass this within a click at 30 moa. After that, I shoot an 800 yard target for zero, and let the app calculate a true muzzle velocity number from that. Once I'm there, everything jive's! [/QUOTE]
