[QUOTE="memtb, post: 3057531, member: 75451"] FireFlyFishing I’m gonna meddle in your business, please forgive. With the velocities that you’re getting and wanting to stay with a standard scope, you could easily do a 300 yard zero. Which can easily give you a 400 yard rifle with minimal hold above desired impact point. Just guess’n that you’ll be about 8 or 9 low at 400. I’ve done that for many years and it’s worked quite well. IMO, the only real negative with that zero is that it’s easy to overshoot small game (Fox, Coyotes, Jacks) inside of 200. But, I suspect that those small critters aren’t your primary quarry. Again, without “crunching” numbers, your trajectory peak will be somewhere around 170 yards @ around 4 to 4 1/2”. You merely have to remember to hold a bit low on the small stuff at those ranges. Once ya get used to it…..it becomes second nature! Just my thoughts! memtb [/QUOTE]
