[QUOTE="User4302021, post: 1505123, member: 105322"] The OP is only wanting to take game to 500 yards. Most big game rounds are close enough in trajectory out to that range (within 0.1-0.2 at 500 yards) that the minor differences will never be realized. He can just use a 200 yard zero on the 30-06 class of cartridges, and a 100 yard zero on the magnums. Or, the OP can map the drops in his reticle and use a ballistic app to determine the zero height that will make his round match the drops. Beyond 500 yards is where it starts to spread out fairly quickly. Also, if the OP is using the BDC, he won't be dialing up and down in the field. He just needs the scope to properly zero and hold zero. [/QUOTE]
