They use to hunt elk with a 30-32 so…. I knew a life long trophy elk hunter that lived in Lander that used .243 on absolutely everything. Many many elk died to lots of guns less than a .308
I mean if you have turrets, dial up from your 100y zero for the calculated mpbr hold. Should get you to 300+- and be able to engage very quickly. If you have to shoot further, it's just a lil twist of the elevation turret. I typically set my elevation to 0.7 mil dial and it puts my inside vitals to 320y. If I need more I just grab turret. I do agree zeroing to mpbr is dumb.
Edit* these are field hunting scenarios, not anything else.
Remember when all turrets were capped, required a coin to adjust, didn’t have clicks, did not reliably return to zero, and the reticles were just simple crosshairs (or duplex crosshairs if you were bougie)? Pepperidge Farm remembers. MPBR is for those scopes.

Kentucky windage, that's the only optics I knew till I was 20 years old shooting on the farm in Montana. Soemhow I killed a lot of stuff 400-500y with the 25-06.
