[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1527476, member: 75451"] I’m pretty similar with Steve on this. Our numbers may vary slightly, but an insignificant amount! I like the MPBR system. It works great, if one does not have/use a range finder......all shots do not afford the hunter the time to range. If you’re half decent at range judgement to around 300 yards, practice can make you pretty proficient.... then my sight-in works well. We do a 300 yard zero. We know that at around 170-180ish, we’re at maximum trajectory elevation...and hold a few inches low. If the shot appears long, in excess of 300.....hold a bit high! We can “hold on hair” for big game, from muzzle to 400 yards. If the target appears to be well beyond your 300 yard judgement.....a rangefinder and sighting adjustment may be in order. We’ve taken several game animals to and slightly beyond 400, by merely giving a little holdover above intended impact point. And, have made shots on coyotes and fox around the trajectory high point....by merely holding a little low. With our rifles, a 300 yard zero, gives us approx. 5 to 6 inches high at around 180, and about 10 low at 400. Easy, quick, aimpoint adjustments....and no reason to miss ( provided you are even close on the distance estimate) big game inside those parameters. memtb [/QUOTE]
