Well Brian you can either be 5" high at 200 yards or you can be 8" high at 210 to hit a target at 415 yards. 8" high is what you need for a 415 yard zero, so if you aren't turning knobs and you zero for the farthest point you can possibly shoot while hunting then there's a good chance you'll miss or worse at ranges less than 200 yards.

That is why zeroing for MPBR works well, it doesn't mean that you're slinging lead hoping if falls within a certain distance from point of aim. What it means is that you don't have to think so hard about things out to a certain range if you're a hunter. This doesn't mean that you can't or don't practice and employ a certain amount of other techniques such as turning a knob or holdover/under.

Just because you don't like it, understand it, want to use it, or any combination of all three doesn't mean it isn't for anyone else or doesn't work for other people.
