[QUOTE="britz, post: 242036, member: 7865"] +1 on AJ. I actually use a regular piece of 8.5x11 paper with zero's drawn on them w/ black marker. I have some trouble with my color acuity so I prefer the simple black white contrast and I make the circles big enough so I can see a little white around the crosshair to be sure that I am centered on the target. for 100 yards and a 16.5 power scope I usually make the hole about .75 inches or so and for 200 yards it ends up around 1-1.5 inches. When I go to 5 hundred to 700 I just use something like a piece of painters tape or a black painted dot around 3 - 5 inches or so. Seems to work for me. As for the zero, I sight my 300wsm in for 1.8" high at 100, .5 high at 200 that way the bullet is well in the kill zone out past 250 and when the shots get farther, then I have to start to adjust for tradjectory.
