.17 sight in

I've taken over 800 coyotes here in Western Montana with my 17 Rem and with all my varmint rifles I sight in 2 to 2.2 inches high at midrange. I don't worry what my POI is although I take note of it. If a coyote is at midrange and you hold dead on, you'll hit slightly high in the coyote but kill him just as well. A 2" midrange is 1 5/8 " high at 100 yards. I shoot 25 grains of Varget and a 29 grain Genco or 30 grain Berger. Montana Mike
