I feel your pain. Believe me! When I first started hunting with a rifle, I got others to zero rifle/scope for me.To make a long and very painful story short, I missed 3 deer in a 2 hour period late one afternoon. All 3 broadside and less than 40 yards. Needless to say I didn't hunt with the rifle any more that season. I found out later that my hunting buddy had zeroed it to hit 6 inches high at 100 yards. I didn't cry, but I did cuss a whole lot
