[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 977448, member: 63748"] Yep. I may still use the 100 yard range to Zero my 300 yard zero. I will dial up the equivlant MOA from 100 to 300 and set my 0 at 300 or shoot X.X" high at 100. ALL of my hunting rifles have a 300 year zero set on the scope. Again, that doesn't necessairly equate to a zero on a 300 yard range. Quick shooting conditions can mean "see fur shoot fur" without having to dial up from 100 for a 400 yard shot. Short range aim lower from center of mass. Longer range (estimated past 300 but not too much more than 400 ) aim just below the spine. If you "screw up" your range estimate and the animal is actually 300 yards cross canyon not the 400 you estimate you should still hit fur with a shot on the edge of the vitals. Potentially not so with a 100 yard zero shooting 400. [/QUOTE]
