[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2026286, member: 75451"] I use a 300 yard zero, and can easily shoot over a fox or coyote at around 180 due to the mid- range trajectory. But, with almost 30 years using this zero and not getting extremely emotional about a shot on a varmint, making an adjustment for the smaller target is quite easy. My zero is a non-issue when shooting big game. Even if, at my peak of trajectory I aimed a bit high on a deer or Antelope ( our smaller big game) I will likely get a spine shot....pretty effective on stopping animals. If my primary target were small varmints.....I would likely use a different zero point! I guess the intended use for the firearm may play into the zero range! memtb [/QUOTE]
