In setting up for hunting, I doubt you'd shoot enough non-Mil-spec loads to hurt a Garand. What, six or so to sight in "for real", after you're basically sighted in with Mil-spec ammo? Two or three, at most, per hunt?
I'm lazy, so my initial sight-in with a scope is at 25 yards. Hard to be way off, or off the paper. Just remember that it takes a lot of clicks to move an inch...I just shoot once, adjust what seems to be correct number of clicks, and shoot again. When I'm near-center, I move to the 100-yard target.
At 100 yards, I shoot a 3-shot group, and then adjust the scope to move the *center* of the group.
Hope this helps, Art
