My zero is set in the bulls eye. Where's yours set???? whistle

Even the big guns get dialed in that way... whistle

Honestly though, it really depends on the capabilities of your rifle, scope, turrets, range you plan on shooting, reticle etc... Is this for your 300 wsm??? When I was shooting my 300 wsm (FN PBR XP), I ran 165's at around 3000 fps, dialed a Nikon Monarch X-tactical 4-16x50 and zeroed at 100 yards. I kept a dope sheet in my pocket for proven drops with that combo. Easily made 1 shot kills past 600 yards.

For a lighter weight walking around hunting rifle, I've ordered custom dials with a zero set near MPBR, so I can take full advantage of the cartridge and range. Providing the said rifle is accurate enough to make clean kills at that distance:

This fairly lightweight hunting rifle (30-06 EW in Mcmillan edge stock) topped out at 660 yards as set up with scope/mounts, CDS, bullet used etc....
