What yardage is your zero

I use Strelok Pro and find what zero is best that gives me a flat trajectory dependant on velocity. I set it for hold over at all ranges, no hold under. For my Leshiy .22 as an example based at the current speed at 850 fps with JSB 18.13gr., I check which distance would give me the flattest trajectory. Zeroed at 25 yards, it's flat from 24 yards out to 33 yards.

My turret zero stop is set just under 100 yards and hash marks set at a 100 yard zero on my .357 Slayer. Then to get out to long ranges, say 200 yards, the holdover is 20.65 moa, which I don't like to use way down at the bottom of the reticle. So I'll dial to a 175 yard target, redo my zero in Strelok Pro and holdover to 200 yards at 5.36 moa. My longest target is 235 yards, and the holdover is still 13.5 moa.

I do the same dialing and holdover technique with my 30 caliber Impact, and because the speed is about the same but BC a little lower, it works out well. Though I will use a closer, more optimal zero for a flatter trajectory when hunting so I just have to hold over (or under for really close shots.)

Just rezeroed today at 30 yards on my Streamline. It was set at 50 but then I had holdunder for more common closer ranges that I shoot. Now it's all just holdover. I worked the POIs out from 20 to 40 yards in 5 yard increments so far. Will do more later when I get more trigger time. Back to work tomorrow after having a much needed break from work this past week. Already have OT scheduled and I haven't even been back yet!

My Wildcat is zeroed at 30 and my Royale is zeroed at 35. Most of my spring guns are at 25.
