[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 1946137, member: 3230"] Well, the questions I posed are certainly more important than at what range you zero. The OP has access to longer ranges, but a lot of folks do not. Like I said, I zero at 500 on calm days to minimize spin drift. Zeroing at 100 doesn't do that. You want to shoot at 1000? Better have an answer for spin drift, especially if your RF or app doesn't calculate it. I then dial down from there so that when I am hunting I have a 200 yard zero. Does anyone really hunt with a 100 yard dead on zero? Hell, I even zero my .416 Rem Mag at 200 when hunting Cape buff, elephants, etc. I certainly don't follow the logic you cited with respect to Bryan Litz. Not sure why that is a rational explanation for zeroing at 100. [/QUOTE]
