I just sighted in a new to me Remington 700 in 30-06 last week using Remington 150 grain Core-Lokt's. At 25 yards I had it 1/2 inch high, at 100 yards it was 4 inches inches high. First target is at 25 yards, second is at 100 yards.
In the 25 yard target, the shot high and to the right is after bore sighting rifle, just removing the bolt and centering the target looking through barrel then adjusting scope so cross-hairs were centered on orange dot, next shot was a little to the left from first shot (after scope adjustment), shot that is low and to the right is after my second scope adjustment, the shot that is 1/2 inch high was the final shot after another adjustment to scope.
First shot at 100 yards is the one 4 inches high, made adjustment to scope and next two shots are 2 inches high, one more adjustment to scope and final two shots are 1 inch high.
only real way to know where it will hit at 100 yards is to shoot it at 100 yards.
I have found that when I sight in a .270, .280 and .30-06 dead on at 25 yards they are very close to 3 inches high at 100 yds which is where I like them to be
