[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 976302, member: 2567"] For years I used to zero at 300 yards. Now I zero at 100 and zero my turret. I typically hunt with 3 moa dialed into my turret so that I can shoot point blank to 400 yards in a rush shot. When I have time, I dial where I need to be. Have you shot your gun at 100 yard intervals out to 600 yards on paper and recorded the drops? Doing so will give you a much better picture of what is actually going on, whether bullet bc is off or velocity is off etc. Making sure your 100 yard zero is as close to exact or at least to input with as much accuracy is also very important. If your group at 100 is .25 high, you need to input that number into your program or things won't come out. Make sure to check simple mechanics also such as torque on action screws and if your barrel is free floated to make sure the stock isn't contacting the barrel when the bipod is loaded. [/QUOTE]
