    Call it an investment in certainty.
    Spot on.
    If you've got access to a range out to 350m make some 1 MOA white targets on a black background. If you can shoot inside the white comfortably, 1" dot for 100m 2" for 200m 3" for 300m etc. you'll be good to go. Wind will still push ya projectile round a hell of a lot at 350m.
