Jim, as far as large game hunting, 400 is not too bad with the right set up. In my opinion, too much emphasis is now being placed on ballistic reticle, mil dots, etc. etc. Past 400, all that is wonderful to have. Inside 400, its totally unnecessary. Point blank range works just fine inside 400. My typical recipe for zeroing my 400 yard (Just so happens my field I normally hunt is 397 yards long) rifle is 1/2 inch high at 200. Its not a true point blank to 400, but down a little on the shorter shots and up a little on the longer shots has bagged a lot of white tails. Last time I missed one I was 11 or 12 years old. I need to come up 5 inches at 400. Its easier for me to aim 5 inches up on the deer than to mess with hold over hashes and make sure the scope is on the correct power.
