Why not just back off to 100 if you have a good pattern for your load and sight it in for that?  Different bullet weights and amounts of powder will give you different trajectories so you need to sight it for yourself.   :twocents:

If your using Powerbelt they say to zero it in at 150.  I am 5" high at 50.
Cut em!
