    @gimp Years ago I used to shoot foxes for skins so all needed to be head shots mostly with foxes looking directly at the shooter/spotlight. Zeroing was done at 100yds with 3 shot groups. After shooting several foes 5 plus a small adjustment usually needed to be made mostly less than .5 inch but always required. Scope was and still is a Leupold 10x with friction adjustment bought in the late 70's, and held zero well. I always thought 2-3 shot zeroing isn't completely accurate but am too tight to fire any more shots
    Now I pro deer shooting for a chiller and again head shoots are required and again find an in field adjustment is required after sighting in and shooting a few animals

    2-3 shot zeroing is good enough for hilar shooting of deer but I'm convinced not good enough for shooting that requires a high degree of precision

    Have to admit your theories seem to be spot on

    I have 2 Leupold and 2 Swarovski scopes and all hold zero

    Not sure how anyone can claim otherwise
