Default Help the A.D.D. sight in a Slug Gun!

I've had a shot gun sitting in the closet for years. I decided to pimp it out forcoyotes and hogs. I stripped the gun down cleaned eve & oiled everything. Attached a B-Square andput an old3x9 Bushnell scope on it. After going to the range I decided to swap out thescope. The oldBushnell had so much parallex it was driving me nuts.

My set up:
Mossberg 500A 12ga. Pump
Standard Barrel with a Rifled Choke
B-Square BSA Classic 4x Fixed Scope
Remington Sluggers 2 3/4" 7/8 oz.

Now my question. I sighted the gun initially at 15 yds. It took 2 slugs to get it centered. I stepped off to the 50 yds and couldn't get it on paper? I partially blame the horriblebushnell scope. I tried raising the rifle a few inches high and low to see what might be going on. Still, no paper. When I sighted the old bushnell scope@ 15 yds, i had toclickthe vertical nob all the way down.

If you could give me suggestion on how to get this thing sighted in @ 75 yds I would greatly appreciate it.

Also what is the maximum distance I should shoot a hog and a coyote?
