    You should be able to use any ballistics calc for this. Just program in different zero's until you get one that shows at 2 inches high at 100, or whatever else you want.

    @ebf pretty sure that shooter doesn't have what you're looking for .. and neither does Strelok .

    Shooter is "OK", but I prefer Strelok ..... If you want pretty graphs and tables with Strelok you can send yourself the table, load it into Excel and format it up as you like it ...

    I use strelok, the free version definitely does not have that feature

    Unless I am blind, the Hornady calc, both basic and advanced does not have a field to enter a horizontal offset for the zero.

    Using sterlock you can go to where the scopes details are and set it as a zero at 2" high if thats what you mean.

    Toby, are you not confusing it with scope height setting ? That is for low/high rings...

    Nope never mind, I was looking at the zero distance I just looked at it again. I thought you could set it so it could be 2" high or whatever you'd like.

    If your zeroing at a hundred and want it 2 inch high or whatever why not just wind on 2moa?
    That's what i do get a good zero at 100 and if hunting open country wind on 2moa then can take quick shots out to 300ish without having to range or think and if its further should have the time to range and fire up shooter.

    Unless you have a zero stop single turn scope and need the extra elevation for range, but another 2moa isn't goin to get you much further anyway.
