If I recall BZO back in my day was 300 yards.
For my hunting rifle, I’m not a competitive shooter, I like a zero of 300 yards. This makes me 1-3” high at 100-175 yards. Plenty of room for a whitetail.

As with my age, I do not feel comfortable taking a shot on Game past 250-300 yards. So, i zero my hunting rifles at 200 yards. As Wes1391 says, ”Plenty of room for whitetail.”
Page 1 was a bunch of nonsense and there’s still plenty on page 6, so I will assume there’s limited adult thoughts on 2-5 (that I didn’t read.)
Anyhow, on my short barrel 308 hunting rifle I zero at 50, second zero at 175. That gives me +/- .2mil for anything out to 200 yards where I don’t have to worry about it.
200-500 yards gives me time to dial and it’s extremely simple… I don’t have to reference written dope, add .5 for every 50 yards. (250=.5, 300=1, 350=1.5, etc)

For hunting I still zero at 100 then figure out my MPBR and then dial in the correction to get where I need to be. Depending on the round this usually gets me out to 350 ish no adjustments needed. Then I can still return to zero at the end of the day or dial out farther if needed.

IMO, this is the easiest thing. Once you zero at 100yds......you can dial in any other "zero" you want. MPBR is a very powerful tool for hunters.
Using 100yds zero, you literally have unlimited options as to what you want to do after.
Truly, this is the BEST option. Holy fuck.
Not until.......we find out what SD formula he uses.
F that. I want to know about his bow kills and bench press numbers...
only if he pours concrete too
I have it on good authority RIverBoat Kerry is fixing "Climate Change." so you may have to re-think in a few years.
it's one of those 'you had to be there' sort of things
Como the fuck?
Google translate says the post started with mrad because metric (abridged), then devolved from there…
Ya, was just a bad joke from me mixing the languages to say "what the fuck." lol
Que carajo?
