[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 1055265, member: 6064"] First off for the ballistics of a 234 it would be a waste to have a 100 yard zero. Take this for what it is worth, but I would sight in for about 1 1/2" high at 100 and then you would be dead on at 200yds and only 6-8" low at 300yds. The 243 is a pretty hot little cartridge, and you don't loose anything with this type of zero. Most variable scopes these days are pretty good about maintaining impact point at any power setting, so I would say you would be fine when zoomed in or not...at most you would be 1/2" off your orriginal zero so I wouldn't worry too much. as for a quick check 30yds is OK......BUT NOTHING replaces zeroing at the yardage you intend to shoot, so I would find someone who can take you to a real 100 or 200 yard range. Sight in with what ever ammo you like, then get a bunch of it all the same, as different ammo and different bullet weights will hit different than what you zero it with. Kurt Miller [/QUOTE]
