It's a little more complicated, but all you have to do to get a 100 yard zero is know what height the ballistic chart says you bullet should be at at 50 yards on its way to 100 yards. For instance, if the bullet should be 2" above the line of sight (more correctly, the bore line) at 50 yards, then aim at the bullseye and adjust util your bullets are impacting 2" above your point of aim. There's your 100 yard zero. I wouldn't rely on that method to shoot accurately to 500 yards, but for 100 yards you should be fine.
Really?? I'll have to go back up there now. I was there a couple weeks ago but I was only shooting 100yd. I wonder when they're going to have 100yd allowing FMJ. Do you know how many lanes they have for rifle FMJ?

Re: My First EBR

Nice looking build. The only range I know that lets you shoot any type of ammo is Shoot Smart, but I think that is only on their private lane. Friend of mine told me he went there and shot and they didn't care what he was shooting. Distance between your scope and CH is similar to mine, except mine actually grazes the bottom of the scope when I pull the handle. I alleviated the problem by buying a riser. Enjoy the rifle. I just finished putting together my other lower, now I just need to find a nice deal on a complete upper.
