[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1462156, member: 87243"] Here is what I do. I zero my rifle at 100 yds, in my experience my ballistic calculators tend to be more accurate at long ranges from an exact 100 yard zero, you do not need to add in atmospheric conditions from zero, ect. Then, I do as you said, calculate my maximum point blank to keep within 4 inches up/down of POA for a specific load, and if that is say up 2.75 MOA from my 100 yard zero, I calculate my holdover reticle for 2.75 MOA up from zero, and I carry my rifle dialed up 2.75 MOA, so that it is ready for a quick shot inside 300-350ish, or a little holdover for a pop shot out to 500ish yards. Past 500 (and usually inside 500 if I have time), I will pretty much always dial. Has worked well for me so far!! [/QUOTE]
