    Hmmmmm 4.5cms with 30 yard zero gives 1st mil-dot bang on 45 yards. Well near enough...

    I think yours must be a lot lower - more like 1.2 inch (30mm)

    It is damned hard to measure accurately anyway

    That gives 1.1 to 1.2 mil-dots at 45 yards. Bang on at about 43 yards.

    I am assuming you are running at about 775 fps?

    I would go higher mounts. If you push your zero range out further on low mounts you will have a high zenith i.e. with a 35 yard zero you are +0.6 mil-dot at 15 to 25 yards

    Having said that, a 32 yard zero with your current set up may work for you. 1st mil-dot is at 45 yards.

    Make the effort with Chairgun - it is well worth it
