team tractor Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 After checking my trail cam and noticing the muntys are closer than first thought. If I have a 200 yard zero on my 223 and it's 1" high at 100 . Where abouts is 15/20 yards. I just never practice at this range. I will now but where is it roughly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisheruk Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Assume the height of the scope above the centre of the bore and raise the cross hairs up that much on your target, should get you pretty much there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) At 15 to 20 yards I'd a throwing club not a better tool If you type into google all sorts of ballistic info comes up. As you know the round and rifle scope combo your using it should tell you the answer. This has been asked on American forums for close wolves and the consensus is 1.5 inches plus your your scope height.

Fisheruk Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 If you are going to Catton tomorrow you can check it out. If not I'll try it with my 223 and let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 About an inch high should be point and shoot at 20-35 yards outwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its too late now I cant get the day off. Get out on one of your perms and stick a can of pop out for a target at what range you expect to shoot them at. And if you do get that close to a Munty you will be doing well unless your in a high seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Your shot will be lower than you think at that range, as mentioned it's due to the scope height above the bore so you actually need to aim high as the shot will be low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team tractor Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Jump on it.. That sounds like fun. Your shot will be lower than you think at that range, as mentioned it's due to the scope height above the bore so you actually need to aim high as the shot will be low That's what I thought but I guess testing will help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
