[QUOTE="User4302021, post: 2023994, member: 105322"] Honest question... What do you gain by calling 300 yards "0" over calling 100 yards "0"? If you called 300 yards 3.5MOA... exactly what would that change other than the numbers you are referencing on the scope? You realized that it takes exactly the same amount of adjustment either way right? You don't gain any further amount of adjustment by "zeroing" further out. The difference is that when you dial back to your zero stop you will not be able to go back to 100 yards. So if your scope gets knocked around and you have to rezero, then you won't be able to readily tell whether you are "on" or not without some way to measure your point of impact offset accurately in a field situation.
