[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1393446, member: 10755"] Most of my big game rifles are sighted in for a MPBR with an 8” target radius. This normally runs 2.5”-3” high at 100yrds, this gives 350+yrds with no hold over. Most all of my rifles are magnums of one sort or another, so they have pretty flat tralectory sighted this way. It equates to shooting down an 8” tube with the bullet just scuffing the top and dropping at whatever the maximum point blank range is. Most ballistic apps can punch out MPBR numbers easily. I find a 2” high @ 100yrds zero actually hampers long shots of 300yrds or more, if you shoot within this range then the 2” high zero is fine for those situations. Cheers. :) [/QUOTE]
