[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1333819, member: 87243"] I zero at 100 yards, for simplicity and ease of setting up my ballistics app, I do not have to enter my atmospheric conditions at time of zero, and it seems to give me more accurate come ups, [B]but[/B] [B]where my scope is dialed while hunting is 2.25 MOA high[/B]. With this dope, my highest point in flight is about +3" at 150-160 yards, with my .260 AI that is a 285 yard zero, and at 350 yards I'm 4.25" low. So I have the best of both worlds, consistency for my ballistics app, and the longest point blank possible with my cartridge and ammunition selection. If I need to make a quick shot, I will know it's within 350 yards, and any point of aim will be good. If I have any doubt on range, I will not shoot until I go through my long range steps of getting a good position, ranging my target, acquiring the proper dope, reading wind, ect. ect..... [/QUOTE]
