I have also seen a guy "pace out" 100 yards and when measured it was just under 84 yards?? (48ft. short!)
I Reckon that 50-60 yards is the maximum effective range to be shooting a .22 at game!
With a 50 yard zero you're talking of going up about another 7-8 moa for 100 yards.
Any more range than 50-60 yards then it's time for a .22 centrefire and the choice is limitless. | yeah me too.
any second now we are gonna be told about how somebodies granpappy used to shoot elk with one at 400 yards ALL DAY.
