[QUOTE="rickjoty, post: 1527346, member: 99582"] You know 257Tony I'm with you. I look at a zero somewhere in the 225 to 250 range. It keeps a manageably small over shot at 100, and still good out to 350 or so. After that check your chart and carefully consider environmental factors. Take this from a guy who's longest shot has been 197 yards on a nice Antelope. So after 200 I probably don't know what I'm talking about. As an after thought, I had to shoot that Antelope twice. My 7mm RM had a problem with the trigger and the pull weight was drifting, 1.5 - 3. I had gloves on and as I was moving my crosshairs onto the target the gun just went off. It knocked it down but I had to run up a 100 yards and take a head shot for the finish. That gun went right to the smith. [/QUOTE]
