[QUOTE="Doug Herold, post: 1631358, member: 102658"] 100 yds. is where I zero. My reasons are twofold: 1). No matter where or what elevation I hunt, if I set my zero at 100 yds., it will be “on” at any elevation. If I set the zero at 200 or beyond, it won’t. Real easy to check after long plane rides and idiot baggage handlers. 2). If I set the zero at 100 yds., it is REALLY easy to adjust and true elevation: 400yds = 1” of elevation hold, 800 yds = 2” of elevation hold. Doesn’t mean I can’t preset the turret for a 350 yd. quick shot when hunting the Alberta prairie. [/QUOTE]
