Thread was just to make sure that I was using a zero that made sense for the range I was hunting. Basically to verify an internet article with the experience on this forum. Appreciate the other advice but I am a responsible ethical hunter.
Yes, I am doing plenty of practice from 50-400 yards. Already started to move to sticks, tripod, backpack and standing. I got till Mid October and I shoot 2 times a week 5-6 hours a day (ammo $$$$). Today was my best day ever shooting groups. Will increase shooting times the closer it gets to the hunt. Also in August, I will buy a full size elk target to practice on with all the shooting positions. I will also say shooting springer air rifles is helping me be a better shot as you have to hold them very consistently, much more than firearms. Thanks for the replies.
