Regardless of caliber, where I deer hunt in thick Eastern woods the average shot is 35-50yds...so I use a 50yd zero, and know from checking they'll be about an inch low at 75 and about 3" low at 100 if I should ever get such a shot.ffffg said:im doing my final sighting in for my .62 for deer and elk..

Sounds about the same as how I do it. 50 yrds seems to be my "bench mark" for sighting in then I'll check it at 25 yrds and 100 yrds to see where it's hitting. I hunt in the woods too, where shots are pretty close by rifle standards so if I can hit at 50 yrds it'll cover 80% of the shots that I see. :thumbsup:roundball said:Regardless of caliber, where I deer hunt in thick Eastern woods the average shot is 35-50yds...so I use a 50yd zero, and know from checking they'll be about an inch low at 75 and about 3" low at 100 if I should ever get such a shot.
