[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2553262, member: 61747"] If you zero a scope at 25 with -2 you will be further off at 100 and 200 then a flat 25 zero, just in opposite directions. -2 will be low and 0 will be high, with 0 being less deviation. Bore height and 25 are not that closely related to be linear. Clearly whatever method works is fine but there is not a lot of reason to complicate it more than needed. Punch a hole at 25 zero and move to 100/200 and you'll be inside 4" of zero. Now if a guy wants to be super precise on the over or under height at zero it can all be done in an app within a few seconds. Set your app zero to 100 and step size to 25. The app will tell you the correction for 25 yard zero based on your profile. For example playing with 2 of my rifles is showing -.8 inches at 25 is a 100 zero. For a 200 zero it is -.4" inches.
