    Correct, no rush. If you are inputting data into a ballistic calculator, you will need to play around with the zeroed distance until the calculator shows a 2" above sightline at 100. Start at around 170 and work forward. If at 170 it shows a higher POI than 2" at 100, work backward.

    When you get to a point where it shows 2" high at 100, this is theoretically the distance at which your rifle is 'zeroed' in the true sense. You will then be able to input this zero distance for proper calculations.
