    @deer243 I have spent the vast majority of my hunting life hunting bush, there is a reason for the 25yard zero every old prick you talk to who has shot a ship load of deer recommends.

    Its because with a 303 its also a 200y zero and a slight hold for 300.

    With for example a generic 150gr 308 load a 100y zero is also "on" at 65y shorter than that its low, bush ranges are typically 20-60y.
    Same load zeroed at 200y is "on" at 30Y and within 6mm from 20-45y.

    Better to zero at 200y for bush.
    When i said sighting in at 100m is perfered i still stick by that. But that doesnt mean you have to sight it bang on at 100m. My 243 is sighted 1.5 inches high at 100m and my 308 2 inches high and both are good at 200m. Like Matty P said it cuts out alot of variables sighting at 100m rather than 200m. And cant say ive missed any animals from 0-100m in the bush sighting like that
    veitnamcam, 10-Ring and Micky Duck like this.
