but out past 150yrds the lack of bdc hurts.
100 yard zero that what all my rifle’s use
If I had but one take-away from Chuck's No-Fail rifle it was that:
"The zero data IS the training"
in that understanding YOUR impacts for YOUR zero, with YOUR gun shooting YOUR ammo can all vary greatly because of a myriad of factors beyond the assumptions of the various industry zero dogma (insert the "only bad zero is the one you don't know").
I was a dyed in the wool 100y rifle zero guy myself. Now, the zero should be a case-by-case basis depending on average range of use, target size, accuracy/margin of error, and so on.
It surprises me that you're having difficulty at 150y in a 100y zero (but given the above, and what I've seen in my guns compared to conventional wisdom, I don't doubt you could have a potential issue)
It may be worth playing with a 50y or 200y zero (as there often is some minor variance) and see IF changing your zero for this particular gun allows you MORE freedom with your dead-on hold than with the 100y zero. With a few of my guns, I have swapped to zeroing at 50y as I can no longer trust my eyes with even a 2 MOA dot and astigmatism. You may potentially find that the potential offset at 100y may be more acceptable given what you could potentially get back at 150-300 or at closer ranges...but you got to get out and know exactly what your system is doing for sure.
