What was you results
Shot by shot?

The 7mm-08 I didn't write down in my notes as it is my deer rifle and I probably won't stretch it out past 300 yards.

The .300 was 2918, 2906, 2908, 2926, 2918, 2895, 2918, 2911. I may have only done 8. I'd have to pull out the SD card to see what the standard deviation was.

So average is between 2912 and 2913
That's what I would do my ballistics chart for 2912.5/FPS
Then use the MPB (maximum point blank) zero distance

You'll need to know bullet length, target area dimensions, deers heart is like 4", elevation, ballistic coefficient for the projectile and POOF...YOUR QUIGLY DOWN UNDER

This was at 100 yards, 6 shots. Factory ammo, I don't hand load since I don't have the equipment or time to do it right now.

 

[MikeMurf0505!]

That's really good
Are those 1" squares on the target?

Just measured, they are 1.25"

Close enough
I use Scorekeeper 5 bullseye targets
They're 1" squares, which helps when your comparing your ballistics to your actual Center Of Impact
I'm kind of a perfectionist

 

[MikeMurf0505!]

I'd say your zeroed in really well
Just gotta do a chart now

Either way at 100 and 200 yards, I'm happy with the results so far. I pretty much have zero bolt action shooting experience. I've trained with an AR-15 and open sights at work as well as pistol shooting. I've focused more on archery hunting since I was 17 (now 40). One of my buddies is more of a rifle hunter and after my archery elk hunting trip last year, I'm more focused on rifle hunting for elk. Will save archery for the deer and pigs.

I'm gonna mess with the CDS dial for a bit to see how accurate it is. For the .300, I'm not planning on going past 500 yards if I can get comfortable at that range with it. As of right now, 300 will most likely be my max.
