[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1090284, member: 2736"] Everyone has a different sight in distance because of the planed distance they will hunt. I personally like to sight in at 100 yards Then build a drop chart for at least 200, 300, 400, and 600 by shooting at those distances. (It also tells you is you are canting the rifle or the scope). With good zeros at up to 600 yards you can calculate the zero at greater distances if you cant shoot any further on known ranges. If you are not a turret twister you will need a mil-dot reticle. if you are, I would recommend that once you have a good 100 yard zero that you leave it on 200 yards so you can shoot fast at 0 to 300 without any adjustments. And when you get a longer shot you can adjust the scope to the proper zero for the distance (You will have more time) Just the way I like to set my zero. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
