    Minimum: as close as I can get. Maximum: 200-800 depending on what I'm packing. Yes, that's a very broad range.

    There was a poll a while back. You might be able to find it with a search.

    Zero at whatever distance you want, based on what seems logical for your ballistics, optics, and target species. E.g. no point zeroing a 3-9x40 on a 22lr 3" high at 100m to go bunny shooting, like you might with a 270 for deer hunting. You'll be too high or low at most ranges for a target that small.
