Cannon Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 The bullet is obviously still heading up. You will have two zero points. Maybe 30 yards and 80 yards. In between them the bullet will be higher due to the somewhat lobbed trajectory of .22 (assuming you have a 22lr). After your second zero point the bullet will strike lower.

la bala Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I am slightly puzzled on your 30yd zero full choke, is there a specific reason why you have chosen 30yds. What scope are you using bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kody Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Maybe best zeroed at 50yds then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
la bala Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Maybe best zeroed at 50yds then My zero is 50yds, some prefer further. If you use your rifle for rabbits whats the average range of them, thats a good indicator for your zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 hello, i always zero mine at 50 yards using a hawke rimfire scope, then the reticule has 75/100/125/200 etched in the glass so there is no guessing on hold over/under well worth getting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 90 Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Your zero distance totally irrelevant without knowing the height of from the centre of your barrel to the centre of your scope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
la bala Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Your zero distance totally irrelevant without knowing the height of from the centre of your barrel to the centre of your scope I think we are assuming the guy knows how to mount a scope.
