[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 99297, member: 1403"] I am familiar with it, but with target knob scopes, I dont think thats the proper way to zero them. I've always heard of people sighting them dead on at 100, 200, or 300. My factorys dont allow for a tight enough group at 300 to trust my "dead on" capability, thus I use a 200 zero with my target knob scopes. Yes, when I say a regular set up, I mean just your basic 3-9 scope w/out knobs sighted 2.5" or 3" high at 100. This makes a running yote out to 0-350 dead meat with a center hold most the time. With a 200 zero, w/out knowing the exact range and having the time, I get frustrated pretty quickly, when you shoot way low or something along those lines. I dont like BDC scopes, you still need to know pretty close to the exact range, or you'll miss.
