[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2855182, member: 68875"] That makes sense. If you are sitting the same spot and have a max range of 300 yards, having a zero you can shoot from 40 to 300 works great. And you really wouldn't even need a rangefinder at those distances. 200 yard zero puts you about 1.3-1.4" high at 130-140 yards, and only 5-6" low at 300. Maybe add 1/2 MOA to your zero, and be even more forgiving. It just doesn't work for my type of hunting. Tough to pre-range when you cover hundreds of square miles. Or when there are nearly zero objects to range. Or when game can appear anywhere from 50 to 1400 yards and up to 4 canyons away. Out west is a different ballgame, and much more of a spot and stalk or stillhunting type game rather than a stand or blind, unless you are sitting water. [/QUOTE]
