[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 437537, member: 8873"] I read all the time about people being told to center their reticles before mounting and zeroing a scope. I can see the benefit of having the reticle as centered in as much as possible when you are sighted in at only one distance: you use hold over, whether it be with a ballistic reticle or not. But for those of you that dial their turrets for distance do you do this? Wouldn't it be best to have the ranges you intend to engage targets at more centered then the scopes original zero? I know my .338 Edge original zero is 100yards and I only have 14 moa of down from there, but about the only reason I shoot at 100yards is to check my zero in the back yard before I take it out hunting/shooting. What are your comments on this? [/QUOTE]
