There are tables on line that can help you. I forget the name of them. Perhaps someone will chime in.
Offhand, I'd suspect that an inch or two high at 100 yards would give you the maximum point blank range. If you can't find this chart, then simply take the scope off of a properly sighted in 243 and use it on your 35 rem, the 243 shoots way flatter so you will be good at those longer ranges and you won't waste ammo !

I’ve got a 35Rem lever gun, I was forced to put a scope on it (Covid has affected my eyesight). What distance should I zero my scope using Federal 200 gr round nose ammo. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Robinhedd Curious were you found a box of Federal .35 Rem ammo, haven't seen a box of Federal .35 rem in years. Also found the Federal .35 ammo more accurate than the Remington factory load in the Marlins I shot.

Pick a distance, then shoot at 25, 50, 75, 100 etc to see how POI and POI relate.
Then kill stuff.
Or are you one of those "it came bore sighted, let's go hunting, I'm sure it's good enough" kinda guys???

You can sight it in where ever you want to. Just be sure to take in windage and elevation when you take a shot.

I didnt like that leverlution in mine. Shoots way different and the brass seems to be thin confounding reloading. The button on the magazine spring is made for a round nose, and marlins don't like different OAL. my old eye problem was solved with a foolproof. Sight for 75 and realize what you have
I also found that the non existent throate will not take .357 bullets loaded to the right length. loaded short enough to chamber and you get the marlin jam.
This is a carbine I thunk I always wanted, found one at a bargain and sure enuff it is not a colorado gun. Had Pennsylvania roots, see through mounts, kmart 4x and loose screws

I zero everything to MPBR per Chuck Hawks
Google Chuck Hawks MPBR.
My 9,3 x 62 Mauser is 4.25" high at 100...
4.5" high at 106 yards
Dead on at 200+/- yards
And 4.5" low at 286 yards.
Some call this "Paper Plate" shooting.
If I hold 12" high at 400... I can ring 2 MOA steel 9 out of 10 times.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

To each thier own, where I hunt there is no way I want my poi going 4.+ inches above my line of sight.

This doesn’t have to be that complicated
The Texas Method:
Go set up in your “shootin house” put up a target at your corn pile. Whether that be 35, 40 or gosh, even 50 yards.
Set up a target at the corn pile, zero it there.
Take target down, add some fresh corn, hunt the next morning.

If you know where you will hunt and the most likely distance to your target, go to the range and place a target at that distance. Zero the scope on that target.
Move the target half the distance toward your shooting point, take a shot and record the amount of drop/rise from zero at that distance.
Move the target out that same distance past the original target (zero) point, take a shot and record the amount of drop/rise from zero at that distance..
You now have some shooting practice with your rifle and new scope and you know the ballistic characteristics at three sensible distances as based on your hunt plan.
You are a hunter - use that data - figure it out.
Or, read all of the above posts, consult the online data charts as applicable to your cartridge, and proceed as you would have done before you saw this post.
Hope this helps.

How in rhe fugg did folks shoot before the interwebs? Maybe, just maybe, actually go and shoot?
Never consulted any online crap. Doubt my scope same height, or bbl same length. Just go to range and shoot diff distances.
Yeah ammonis expensive, esp these days. Fuggin up a hunt or wasting time is worse.
Just shoot the damn thing
