I am wondering if any of the experts here know of a target that can be used to zero a weapon at 100 yds or even 50 yds but simulates longer ranges. I do not have anything longer than 100 yds near home and I have 2 rifles that I just scoped and I also put new rings and scope mounts on my M1A.
I will get to a proper range but want to get it close for the range I have.
Obviously I understand ballistics differ between different rounds. I primarily use 7.62 Match grade ammo for the M1A. But where do I aim vs. the actual bullseye at 50 or 100 yds.
I guess I could do the math on the expected trajectory, but I wondered if there is anything like that available. I don't want to waste a lot of time doing this if it is not worth the effort. But I would like to get it on the paper so I can properly adjust the scope once I do get to the longer range.
There is a 600 YD range about 1 hour from home, so that is probably as far as I will be able to shoot. Plus I don't have the skills for anything longer!
I just want to get close and fear my little ranges are so short that it won't help much! It will get me on line but elevation is the issue here.
NOTE: I did use a Cabela's Laser Bore Sight (Laser in a casing) to get it in the ball park.
